      fanotify: fix handling of events on child sub-directory · 515160e3
      Amir Goldstein authored
      commit b469e7e4 upstream.
      
      When an event is reported on a sub-directory and the parent inode has
      a mark mask with FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD|FS_ISDIR, the event will be sent to
      fsnotify() even if the event type is not in the parent mark mask
      (e.g. FS_OPEN).
      
      Further more, if that event happened on a mount or a filesystem with
      a mount/sb mark that does have that event type in their mask, the "on
      child" event will be reported on the mount/sb mark.  That is not
      desired, because user will get a duplicate event for the same action.
      
      Note that the event reported on the victim inode is never merged with
      the event reported on the parent inode, because of the check in
      should_merge(): old_fsn->inode == new_fsn->inode.
      
      Fix this by looking for a match of an actual event type (i.e. not just
      FS_ISDIR) in parent's inode mark mask and by not reporting an "on child"
      event to group if event type is only found on mount/sb marks.
      
      [backport hint: The bug seems to have always been in fanotify, but this
                      patch will only apply cleanly to v4.19.y]

      drivers: core: Remove glue dirs from sysfs earlier · 2f4da60e
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      commit 726e4109 upstream.
      
      For devices with a class, we create a "glue" directory between
      the parent device and the new device with the class name.
      
      This directory is never "explicitely" removed when empty however,
      this is left to the implicit sysfs removal done by kobject_release()
      when the object loses its last reference via kobject_put().
      
      This is problematic because as long as it's not been removed from
      sysfs, it is still present in the class kset and in sysfs directory
      structure.
      
      The presence in the class kset exposes a use after free bug fixed
      by the previous patch, but the presence in sysfs means that until
      the kobject is released, which can take a while (especially with
      kobject debugging), any attempt at re-creating such as binding a
      new device for that class/parent pair, will result in a sysfs
      duplicate file name error.
      
      This fixes it by instead doing an explicit kobject_del() when
      the glue dir is empty, by keeping track of the number of
      child devices of the gluedir.
      
      This is made easy by the fact that all glue dir operations are
      done with a global mutex, and there's already a function
      (cleanup_glue_dir) called in all the right places taking that
      mutex that can be enhanced for this. It appears that this was
      in fact the intent of the function, but the implementation was
      wrong.

      cifs: Always resolve hostname before reconnecting · 834adff8
      Paulo Alcantara authored
      commit 28eb24ff upstream.
      
      In case a hostname resolves to a different IP address (e.g. long
      running mounts), make sure to resolve it every time prior to calling
      generic_ip_connect() in reconnect.
