From 9b94fcc39822b450af823b3d8cbef6b53ce87ed9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Iustin Pop Date: Mon, 2 Feb 2015 10:26:26 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] xfs: fix behaviour of XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR on directories Currently, the ioctl handling code for XFS_IOC_FSSETXATTR treats all targets as regular files: it refuses to change the extent size if extents are allocated. This is wrong for directories, as there the extent size is only used as a default for children. The patch fixes this issue and improves validation of flag combinations: - only disallow extent size changes after extents have been allocated for regular files - only allow XFS_XFLAG_EXTSIZE for regular files - only allow XFS_XFLAG_EXTSZINHERIT for directories - automatically clear the flags if the extent size is zero Thanks to Dave Chinner for guidance on the proper fix for this issue. [dchinner: ported changes onto cleanup series. Makes changes clear and obvious.] [dchinner: added comments documenting validity checking rules.] Signed-off-by: Iustin Pop Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner Reviewed-by: Brian Foster Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner --- Reading git-format-patch failed
