Uhm, then maybe the problem is that you are passing the wrong argument? ssize_t do_getxattr(struct mnt_idmap *idmap, struct dentry *d, struct xattr_ctx *ctx) { ssize_t error; char *kname = ctx->kname->name; if (is_fscaps_xattr(kname)) { struct vfs_caps caps; struct vfs_ns_cap_data data; int ret; ret = vfs_get_fscaps(idmap, d, &caps); if (ret) return ret; /* * rootid is already in the mount idmap, so pass nop_mnt_idmap * so that it won't be mapped. */ ret = vfs_caps_to_user_xattr(&nop_mnt_idmap, current_user_ns(), &caps, &data, ctx->size); ctx->size in my case is 1024 bytes.
