GHSA-vjcv-x2xf-6m7h: 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ceph: only d_add() negative dentries when they are unhashedCeph can call d_add(dentry, NULL) on a negative dentry that is already
present in the primary dcache hash.In the current VFS that is not safe.  d_add() goes through __d_add()
to __d_rehash(), which unconditionally reinserts dentry->d_hash into
the hlist_bl bucket.  If the dentry is already hashed, reinserting the
same node can corrupt the bucket, including creating a self-loop.
Once that happens, __d_lookup() can spin forever in the hlist_bl walk,
typically looping only on the d_name.hash mismatch check and
eventually triggering RCU stall reports like this one:rcu: INFO: rcu_sched self-detected stall on CPU

  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7eThis is reachable with reused cached negative dentries.  A Ceph lookup
or atomic_open can be handed a negative dentry that is already hashed,
and fs/ceph/dir.c then hits one of two paths that incorrectly assume
"negative" also means "unhashed":ceph_finish_lookup():
  MDS reply is -ENOENT with no trace
  -> d_add(dentry, NULL)ceph_lookup():
  local ENOENT fast path for a complete directory with shared caps
  -> d_add(dentry, NULL)Both paths can therefore re-add an already-hashed negative dentry.Ceph already uses the correct pattern elsewhere: ceph_fill_trace() only
calls d_add(dn, NULL) for a negative null-dentry reply when d_unhashed(dn)
is true.Fix both fs/ceph/dir.c sites the same way: only call d_add() for a
negative dentry when it is actually unhashed.  If the negative dentry
is already hashed, leave it in place and reuse it as-is.This preserves the existing behavior for unhashed dentries while
avoiding d_hash list corruption for reused hashed negatives.
