A wrapper was added around the dcache_readdir release function to decrement all the ref counts of those created inodes and dentries. But this proved to be buggy[1] for when a kprobe was created during a dir read, it would create a dentry between the open and the release, and because the release would decrement all ref counts of all files and directories, that would include the kprobe directory that was not there to have its ref count incremented in open. This would cause the ref count to go to negative and later crash the kernel. To solve this, the dentries and inodes that were created and had their ref count upped in open needed to be saved. That list needed to be passed from the open to the release, so that the release would only decrement the ref counts of the entries that were incremented in the open. Unfortunately, the dcache_readdir logic was already using the file->private_data, which is the only field that can be used to pass information from the open to the release. What was done was the eventfs created another descriptor that had a void pointer to save the dcache_readdir pointer, and it wrapped all the callbacks, so that it could save the list of entries that had their ref counts incremented in the open, and pass it to the release. The wrapped callbacks would just put back the dcache_readdir pointer and call the functions it used so it could still use its data[2]. But Linus had an issue with the "hijacking" of the file->private_data (unfortunately this discussion was on a security list, so no public link). Which we finally agreed on doing everything within the iterate_shared callback and leave the dcache_readdir out of it[3]. All the information needed for the getents() could be created then. But this ended up being buggy too[4]. The iterate_shared callback was not the right place to create the dentries and inodes. Even Christian Brauner had issues with that[5]. An attempt was to go back to creating the inodes and dentries at the open, create an array to store the information in the file->private_data, and pass that information to the other callbacks.[6] The difference between that and the original method, is that it does not use dcache_readdir. It also does not up the ref counts of the dentries and pass them. Instead, it creates an array of a structure that saves the dentry's name and inode number. That information is used in the iterate_shared callback, and the array is freed in the dir release. The dentries and inodes created in the open are not used for the iterate_share or release callbacks. Just their names and inode numbers. Linus did not like that either[7] and just wanted to remove the dentries being created in iterate_shared and use the hard coded inode numbers.
