Hm... static struct super_block *mbt_ext4_alloc_super_block(void) { struct ext4_super_block *es = kzalloc(sizeof(*es), GFP_KERNEL); struct ext4_sb_info *sbi = kzalloc(sizeof(*sbi), GFP_KERNEL); struct mbt_ext4_super_block *fsb = kzalloc(sizeof(*fsb), GFP_KERNEL); if (fsb == NULL || sbi == NULL || es == NULL) goto out; sbi->s_es = es; fsb->sb.s_fs_info = sbi; return &fsb->sb; out: kfree(fsb); kfree(sbi); kfree(es); return NULL; } That VFS level struct super_block that is returned from this function is never really initialized afaict? Therefore, sb->s_user_ns == NULL: i_uid_write(sb, ...) -> NULL = i_user_ns(sb) -> make_kuid(NULL) -> map_id_range_down(NULL) Outside of this test this can never be the case. See alloc_super() in fs/super.c. So to stop the bleeding this needs something like: static struct super_block *mbt_ext4_alloc_super_block(void) { struct ext4_super_block *es = kzalloc(sizeof(*es), GFP_KERNEL); struct ext4_sb_info *sbi = kzalloc(sizeof(*sbi), GFP_KERNEL); struct mbt_ext4_super_block *fsb = kzalloc(sizeof(*fsb), GFP_KERNEL); if (fsb == NULL || sbi == NULL || es == NULL) goto out; sbi->s_es = es; fsb->sb.s_fs_info = sbi; + fsb.sb.s_user_ns = &init_user_ns; return &fsb->sb; out: kfree(fsb); kfree(sbi); kfree(es); return NULL; }
