Can't we use ATTR_FORCE for this? Because this calls notify_change()
twice, and I guess this removes s[ug]id even if vmtruncate() (or in
future ->truncate() may return error) or something returned error.

I think it would not be good behavior.
Hi, please check:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/1/459

Sorry for same argument. I see. However, um...

I found this piece in security/selinux/hooks.c

static int selinux_inode_setattr(struct dentry *dentry, struct iattr *iattr)
{
	const struct cred *cred = current_cred();

	if (iattr->ia_valid & ATTR_FORCE)
		return 0;

	if (iattr->ia_valid & (ATTR_MODE | ATTR_UID | ATTR_GID |
			       ATTR_ATIME_SET | ATTR_MTIME_SET))
		return dentry_has_perm(cred, NULL, dentry, FILE__SETATTR);

	return dentry_has_perm(cred, NULL, dentry, FILE__WRITE);
}

I guess it's assuming the ia_valid doesn't have (ATTR_MODE | ATTR_SIZE),
but truncate() already does it, I don't know whether it's ok.

No, here we should only force ATTR_KILL_SUID and/or ATTR_KILL_SGID. do_truncate() has ATTR_SIZE and ATTR_FILE.
