Subject: [PATCH 5/5] xfs: Correctly lock inode when removing suid and security marks
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2014 13:49:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1418906946-30695-6-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1418906946-30695-1-git-send-email-jack@suse.cz>

Currently XFS calls file_remove_privs() without holding i_mutex. This is
wrong because that function can end up messing with file permissions and
security xattrs for which we need i_mutex held.

Fix the problem by grabbing iolock exclusively when we will need to
change anything in permissions / xattrs.
