From a360f311f57a36e96d88fa8086b749159714dcd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2024 11:57:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] 9p: fix slab cache name creation for real This was attempted by using the dev_name in the slab cache name, but as Omar Sandoval pointed out, that can be an arbitrary string, eg something like "/dev/root". Which in turn trips verify_dirent_name(), which fails if a filename contains a slash. So just make it use a sequence counter, and make it an atomic_t to avoid any possible races or locking issues.
