+Subject: dcache: Handle escaped paths in prepend_path
+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/cde93be45a8a90d8c264c776fab63487b5038a65
+
+A rename can result in a dentry that by walking up d_parent
+will never reach it's mnt_root.  For lack of a better term
+I call this an escaped path.
+
+prepend_path is called by four different functions __d_path,
+d_absolute_path, d_path, and getcwd.
+
+__d_path only wants to see paths are connected to the root it passes
+in.  So __d_path needs prepend_path to return an error.
+
+d_absolute_path similarly wants to see paths that are connected to
+some root.  Escaped paths are not connected to any mnt_root so
+d_absolute_path needs prepend_path to return an error greater
+than 1.  So escaped paths will be treated like paths on lazily
+unmounted mounts.
+
+getcwd needs to prepend "(unreachable)" so getcwd also needs
+prepend_path to return an error.
+
+d_path is the interesting hold out.  d_path just wants to print
+something, and does not care about the weird cases.  Which raises
+the question what should be printed?
+
+Given that <escaped_path>/<anything> should result in -ENOENT I
+believe it is desirable for escaped paths to be printed as empty
+paths.  As there are not really any meaninful path components when
+considered from the perspective of a mount tree.
+
+So tweak prepend_path to return an empty path with an new error
+code of 3 when it encounters an escaped path.

+
+In rare cases a directory can be renamed out from under a bind mount.
+In those cases without special handling it becomes possible to walk up
+the directory tree to the root dentry of the filesystem and down
+from the root dentry to every other file or directory on the filesystem.
+
+Like division by zero .. from an unconnected path can not be given
+a useful semantic as there is no predicting at which path component
+the code will realize it is unconnected.  We certainly can not match
+the current behavior as the current behavior is a security hole.
+
+Therefore when encounting .. when following an unconnected path
+return -ENOENT.
+
+- Add a function path_connected to verify path->dentry is reachable
+  from path->mnt.mnt_root.  AKA to validate that rename did not do
+  something nasty to the bind mount.
+
+  To avoid races path_connected must be called after following a path
+  component to it's next path component.
