Bump the vnode use count, not just its hold count. This fixes a panic
triggered by fstatat(..., AT_EMPTY_PATH) on DRM device nodes, which happens
to be what glxinfo(1) from Ubuntu Jammy is doing.

Event TimelineComment Actions This follows a somewhat similar fix in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D29323?id=86801. I can't say I have a proper understanding of what's going on here though. Here's the test case from Alex S: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <assert.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> int main() { int fd = open("/dev/dri/card0", O_RDWR); assert(fd != -1); struct stat st; fstatat(fd, "", &st, AT_EMPTY_PATH); return 0; } Comment Actions This cannot be right. If the file references vnode, vnode must be active and have the use count at least 1, because file vref-ed the vnode on open. Comment Actions If going that way, then you can remove the adjacent vhold() and vdrop() as they are redundant. Comment Actions Get rid of vhold/vdrop. I've been running it for a few days |
