* namei: fix logic and infinite loop of symlinksKarel Zak2007-01-311-4/+0Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't follow the path if a component is not directory. It doesn't make sense to support something like: $ touch a b $ namei a/b <-- where "a" is not directory The support for infinite loop of symbolic links is a strange wish only. The stack size is very limited. Try: $ ln -s x $ namei x/x [Migration note: severity="low"] Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
