[PATCH] Fix POSIX ACL permission check

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

 



After commit 3567866bf261: "RCUify freeing acls, let check_acl() go ahead in
RCU mode if acl is cached" posix_acl_permission is being called with an
unsupported flag and the permission check fails. This patch fixes the issue.
