d_move() will call __d_drop() and then __d_rehash() on the dentry being moved. This creates a small window when the dentry appears to be unhashed. Many tests of d_unhashed() are made under ->d_lock and so are safe from racing with this window, but some aren't. In particular, getcwd() calls d_unlinked() (which calls d_unhashed()) without d_lock protection, so it can race. This races has been seen in practice with lustre, which uses d_move() as part of name lookup. See: https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-9735 It could race with a regular rename(), and result in ENOENT instead of either the 'before' or 'after' name. The race can be demonstrated with a simple program which has two threads, one renaming a directory back and forth while another calls getcwd() within that directory: it should never fail, but does. See: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9455345/ We could fix this race by taking d_lock and rechecking when d_unhashed() reports true. Alternately when can remove the window, which is the approach this patch takes. ___d_drop() is introduce which does *not* clear d_hash.pprev so the dentry still appears to be hashed. __d_drop() calls ___d_drop(), then clears d_hash.pprev. __d_move() now uses ___d_drop() and only clears d_hash.pprev when not rehashing.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
