From 2b462638e41ea62230297c21c4da9955937b7a3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 15:18:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: do not write error flag to user structure we cannot copy from/to If we failed to copy from the structure, writing back the flags leaks 31 bits of kernel memory (the rest of the ir_flags field). In any case, if we cannot copy from/to the structure, why should we expect putting just the flags to work? Also make sure ocfs2_info_handle_freeinode() returns the right error code if the copy_to_user() fails. Fixes: ddee5cdb70e6 ('Ocfs2: Add new OCFS2_IOC_INFO ioctl for ocfs2 v8.')
