Subject: [v5.0-rc3 regression] Oops when starting nfs service

Hi,

Starting nfs-server service can crash the kernel since
commit ff9fb72bc07705c00795ca48631f7fffe24d2c6b
Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>
Date: Wed Jan 23 11:28:14 2019 +0100

debugfs: return error values, not NULL

# git describe ff9fb72bc07705c00795ca48631f7fffe24d2c6b
v5.0-rc2-3-gff9fb72bc077

Reverting this commit prevents the crash.

It can be reproduced simply by:
# systemctl start nfs-server

Thanks.

Here's the patch that I just sent out for this issue a few minutes
before your email. If you could verify it works for you, that would be
great.

thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] rpc: properly check debugfs dentry before using it

debugfs can now report an error code if something went wrong instead of
just NULL. So if the return value is to be used as a "real" dentry, it
needs to be checked if it is an error before dereferenceing it.

This is now happening because of ff9fb72bc077 ("debugfs: return error values,
not NULL")

I can take this through my tree if people don't object, or it can go
through the NFS tree. It does need to get merged before 5.0-final
though.

I also have a "larger" debugfs cleanup patch for this file, but that's
not really 5.0-final material and I will send it out later.

thanks,

greg k-h

Be careful with 'git describe', you showed what I applied that patch
against, not what release it showed up in.

This really showed up in 5.0-rc6:

$ git describe --contains ff9fb72bc07705c00795ca48631f7fffe24d2c6b
v5.0-rc6~21^2~3

Thanks very much for the tip! I forgot about this, so it should be
rc6 regression.
