xfstests-generic/476 reports a warning message as below:
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 30347 at fs/inode.c:361 inc_nlink+0x52/0x70 Call Trace: do_rename+0x502/0xd40 [ubifs] ubifs_rename+0x8b/0x180 [ubifs] vfs_rename+0x476/0x1080 do_renameat2+0x67c/0x7b0 __x64_sys_renameat2+0x6e/0x90 do_syscall_64+0x66/0xe0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae
Following race case can cause this: rename_whiteout(Thread 1) wb_workfn(Thread 2) ubifs_rename do_rename __writeback_single_inode spin_lock(&inode->i_lock) whiteout->i_state |= I_LINKABLE inode->i_state &= ~dirty; ---- How race happens on i_state: (tmp = whiteout->i_state | I_LINKABLE) (tmp = inode->i_state & ~dirty) (whiteout->i_state = tmp) (inode->i_state = tmp) ---- spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock) inc_nlink(whiteout) WARN_ON(!(inode->i_state & I_LINKABLE)) !!!
Fix to add i_lock to avoid i_state update race condition.
