If a truncate is happening with ->handle_killpriv_v2 is enabled, then we don't have to send ATTR_MODE to kill suid/sgid as server will kill it as part of the protocol. But if this is non-truncate setattr then server will not kill suid/sgid. So continue to send ATTR_MODE to kill suid/sgid for non-truncate setattr, even if ->handle_killpriv_v2 is enabled. This path is taken when client does a write on a file which has suid/ sgid is set. VFS will first kill suid/sgid and then proceed with WRITE. One can argue that why not simply ignore ATTR_MODE because a WRITE will follow and ->handle_killpriv_v2 will kill suid/sgid that time. I feel this is a safer approach for following reasons. - With ->writeback_cache enabled, WRITE will not go to server. I feel that for this reason ->writeback_cache mode is not fully compatible with ->handle_killpriv_v2. But if we kill suid/sgid now, this will solve this particular issue for ->writeback_cache mode too. Again, I will not solve all the issues around ->writeback_cache but makes things better. - If we rely on WRITE killing suid/sgid, then after cache becomes out of sync w.r.t host. Client will still have suid/sgid set but subsequent WRITE will clear suid/sgid. Well WRITE will also invalidate client cache so further access to inode->i_mode should result in a ->getattr. Hmm..., for the case of ->writeback_cache, I am kind of inclined to send ATTR_MODE. - We are sending setattr(ATTR_FORCE) anyway (even if we clear ATTR_MODE). So if we are not saving on setattr(), why not kill suid/sgid now.
