The function ovl_dir_real_file() currently uses the semaphore of the inode to synchronize write to the upperfile cache field.
Although the inode lock is a rw_sem it is referred to as the "inode lock" and you also left semaphore in the commit subject. No need to re-post. This can be fixed on commit.
However, this function will get called by ovl_ioctl_set_flags(), which utilizes the inode semaphore too. In this case ovl_dir_real_file() will try to claim a lock that is owned by a function in its call stack, which won't get released before ovl_dir_real_file() returns.
Define a dedicated semaphore for the upperfile cache, so that the deadlock won't happen.
Fixes: 61536bed2149 ("ovl: support [S|G]ETFLAGS and FS[S|G]ETXATTR ioctls for directories") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v5.10 Signed-off-by: Icenowy Zheng icenowy@aosc.io
Changes in v2:
- Fixed missing replacement in error handling path.
Changes in v3:
- Use mutex instead of semaphore.

That's a very specific name. This mutex protects members of struct ovl_dir_file, which could evolve into struct ovl_file one day (because no reason to cache only dir upper file), so I would go with a more generic name, but let's leave it to Miklos to decide.
He could have a different idea altogether for fixing this bug.
How about this (untested) patch?
It's a cleanup as well as a fix, but maybe we should separate the cleanup from the fix...
If you are going to post this, feel free to add
Tested-by: Icenowy Zheng icenowy@aosc.io
(And if you remove the IS_ERR(realfile) part, the tested-by tag still applies.)
Thanks, Miklos
