[NFS-Ganesha-Devel] Change in ...nfs-ganesha[next]: In mdc_open2_by_name() after lookup check if obj_handle.type==REGULAR...

Madhu Thorat has uploaded this change for review. ( https://review.gerrithub.io/c/ffilz/nfs-ganesha/+/488074 ) Change subject: In mdc_open2_by_name() after lookup check if obj_handle.type==REGULAR_FILE ...................................................................... In mdc_open2_by_name() after lookup check if obj_handle.type==REGULAR_FILE In mdc_open2_by_name() after mdc_lookup() completes successfully and prior to calling FSALs open2(..) we don't check the entry->obj_handle.type to verify if the object is for a regular file. It may be possible that prior to calling mdc_lookup() in mdc_open2_by_name(), another thread working on a different client request may have created a symbolic link with the same name. Using an object created for a symbolic link in nfs4_op_open() code path lead to a crash. Fixed this by adding a check in mdc_open2_by_name() to verify entry->obj_handle.type is REGULAR_FILE and then proceed to call a FSALs open2(..).
