No, you're right, for some reason I thought that the check for a positive inode didn't happen till later. But actually the logic is basically: lock inode lookup_one_len return nfserr_exist if looked up dentry is positive. check for create permission vfs_create So, yes, the initial MAY_EXEC test's needed to prevent that information leak. That said... I wonder why it's done that way? Seems to me we could just tremove that nfserr_exist check and the vfs would handle it for us.... I'll try that. --b. > > > Applying with that one change.
