[PATCH v2 0/2] open: make RESOLVE_CACHED correctly test for O_TMPFILE

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

 



There were a few places that were incorrectly testing for whether an
open(2) operation was O_TMPFILE by doing (flags & O_TMPFILE). As
O_TMPFILE is defined as __O_TMPFILE|O_DIRECTORY, this would cause the
code to assume that O_DIRECTORY is equivalent to O_TMPFILE.

The only places where this happened were in RESOLVE_CACHED and
io_uring's checking related to RESOLVE_CACHED, so the only bug this
really fixes is that now O_DIRECTORY will no longer cause RESOLVE_CACHED
to always fail with -EAGAIN (and io_uring will thus be faster when doing
O_DIRECTORY opens).
