DNS) to be reclaimed immediately on expiry Hi Linus, David, Edward, Networking maintainers, all, This is a heads up that my understanding is that the last patch introduces a buffer overrun for which a patch has been posted. Ordinarily I would think that the fix should go through net. But the above patches aren't in net yet. Given a) we're now in a holiday season and b) the severity of this problem is unclear (to me), perhaps it is best to wait a bit then post the fix to net? Link: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/tencent_7D663C8936BA96F837124A4474AF76ED6709@qq.com/ N.B. The hash in the fixes tag for the fix patch is now incorrect. For reference the fix, from the link above, is below. I've fixed the hash for the fixes tag and added the posted review tag. And added my own SoB, because the patch is in this email. From: Edward Adam Davis <eadavis@qq.com> bin will be forcibly converted to "struct dns_server_list_v1_header *", so it is necessary to compare datalen with sizeof(*v1).

So I get the feeling that we should get rid of 'bin' entirely, and just use the 'v1' pointer, since it literally checks that that is what it is, and then the size check matches the thing we're casting things to. So then "bin->xyz" becomes "v1->hdr.xyz". Yes, the patch becomes a bit bigger, but I think the end result is a whole lot more obvious and maintainable. I'd also move the remaining 'v1' variable declaration to the inner context where it's actually used. IOW, I personally would be much happier with a patch like the attached, but I (a) don't want to take credit for this, since my change is purely syntactic (b) have not tested this patch apart from checking that it compiles in at least one config so honestly, I'd love to see this patch come back to me with sign-offs and tested-bys by the actual people who noticed this. Hmm? Linus
Hi Linus, Could you apply this, please? It's intended to improve the interaction of arbitrary lookups in the AFS dynamic root that hit DNS lookup failures[1] where kafs behaves differently from openafs and causes some applications to fail that aren't expecting that. Further, negative DNS results aren't getting removed and are causing failures to persist. (1) Always delete unused (particularly negative) dentries as soon as possible so that they don't prevent future lookups from retrying. (2) Fix the handling of new-style negative DNS lookups in ->lookup() to make them return ENOENT so that userspace doesn't get confused when stat succeeds but the following open on the looked up file then fails. (3) Fix key handling so that DNS lookup results are reclaimed almost as soon as they expire rather than sitting round either forever or for an additional 5 mins beyond a set expiry time returning EKEYEXPIRED. They persist for 1s as /bin/ls will do a second stat call if the first fails.
