The fput() of file rcS might not have completed causing issues when executing the file. rcS is opened in do_populate_rootfs before executed. At the end of do_populate_rootfs() flush_delayed_fput() is called. Now do_populate_rootfs() assumes that all fput()s caused by do_populate_rootfs() have completed. But flush_delayed_fput() can only ensure that fput() on the current delayed_fput_list has finished. Any file that has been removed from delayed_fput_list asynchronously in the meantime might not have completed causing the exec to fail. do_populate_rootfs delayed_fput_list delayed_fput execve fput() a fput() a->b fput() a->b->rcS __fput(a) fput() c fput() c->d __fput(b) flush_delayed_fput __fput(c) __fput(d) __fput(b) __fput(b) execve(rcS) Ensure that all delayed work is done by calling flush_delayed_work() in flush_delayed_fput() explicitly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
