[PATCH 04/28] ext4: do not set posix acls on xattr inodes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We don't need acls on xattr inodes because they are not directly
accessible from user mode.

Besides lockdep complains about recursive locking of xattr_sem as seen
below.

  =============================================
  [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
  4.11.0-rc8+ #402 Not tainted
  ---------------------------------------------
  python/1894 is trying to acquire lock:
   (&ei->xattr_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff804878a6>] ext4_xattr_get+0x66/0x270

  but task is already holding lock:
   (&ei->xattr_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff80489500>] ext4_xattr_set_handle+0xa0/0x5d0

  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible unsafe locking scenario:

         CPU0
         ----
    lock(&ei->xattr_sem);
    lock(&ei->xattr_sem);

   *** DEADLOCK ***

   May be due to missing lock nesting notation

  3 locks held by python/1894:
