[PATCH] nfs: Don't assume we have a security structure

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

 



If the i_security field isn't set then security_dentry_init_security()
won't initialize some of the values used by the security label.  This
causes my client to hit a BUG_ON() while encoding a label of size
-2128927414.

I hit this bug while testing on a client without SELinux installed.
