I wonder if we could instead skip the fh_verify's inode_permission call entirely? Most callers of fh_verify don't need the inode_permission call at all as far as I can tell, because the following vfs operation does permission checking already. We still need some nfs-specific checking, I guess (e.g. to make sure we aren't allowing setattr on a read-only export of a writeable mount), but the inode_permission itself I think we can usually skip. Andreas Gruenbacher has also been complaining that the redundant inode_permission calls make the richacl work more difficult, I can't remember why exactly. --b. > > thanks, > Kinglong Mee > ------------------------------------------------------------- > diff --git a/fs/nfsd/vfs.c b/fs/nfsd/vfs.c > index 84d770b..2533088 100644 > --- a/fs/nfsd/vfs.c > +++ b/fs/nfsd/vfs.c > @@ -407,10 +371,23 @@ nfsd_setattr(struct svc_rqst *rqstp, struct svc_fh *fhp, struct iattr *iap, > bool get_write_count; > int size_change = 0; > > - if (iap->ia_valid & (ATTR_ATIME | ATTR_MTIME | ATTR_SIZE)) > + if (iap->ia_valid & ATTR_SIZE) { > accmode |= NFSD_MAY_WRITE|NFSD_MAY_OWNER_OVERRIDE; > - if (iap->ia_valid & ATTR_SIZE) > ftype = S_IFREG; > + } > + > + /* > + * According to utimes_common(), > + * > + * If times is NULL (or both times are UTIME_NOW), > + * then we need to check permissions, because > + * inode_change_ok() won't do it. > + */ > + if (iap->ia_valid & (ATTR_ATIME | ATTR_MTIME)) { > + accmode |= NFSD_MAY_OWNER_OVERRIDE; > + if (!(iap->ia_valid & (ATTR_ATIME_SET | ATTR_MTIME_SET))) > + accmode |= NFSD_MAY_WRITE; > + } > > /* Callers that do fh_verify should do the fh_want_write: */ > get_write_count = !fhp->fh_dentry; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
