It's not going to get set in smack_init_inode_security(). The inode will know it's transmuting, but it won't get to disk without the __vfs_setxattr() here in smack_d_instantiate(). Now, it's been a long time since that code was written, so I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure about that. I think that you should be fine with the changes in smack_init_inode_security(), and leaving smack_d_instantiate() untouched. > if (rc >= 0) > transflag = SMK_INODE_TRANSMUTE; > }
