Hmmm, let me take a look: It looks like we call inode_permission at open() time to make sure that the file permissions permit writes and the file isn't immutable. security_file_permission gets called at write() time to recheck with the security policy, but once a process has been granted a writable file descriptor, it retains that privilege until it closes the fd. In other words, we check at open time, not at operation time. I think. Nothing is ever that simple, so let's check behavior: So let's try opening a file for write, removing write permissions, then writing to the file: $ rm -rf xyz $ touch xyz $ ls -lad xyz -rw-rw-r-- 1 djwong djwong 0 Dec 3 09:28 xyz $ xfs_io xyz xfs_io> pwrite -S 0x58 0 4k wrote 4096/4096 bytes at offset 0 4 KiB, 1 ops; 0.0000 sec (130.208 MiB/sec and 33333.3333 ops/sec) xfs_io> [1]+ Stopped xfs_io xyz $ chmod a-w xyz $ sudo chown root:root xyz $ ls -lad xyz -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 3 09:28 xyz $ fg xfs_io xyz xfs_io> pwrite -S 0x58 0 8k wrote 8192/8192 bytes at offset 0 8 KiB, 2 ops; 0.0000 sec (558.036 MiB/sec and 142857.1429 ops/sec) xfs_io> Yep, we can write to an already-open file even if we change its ownership and take away write permission.

Both of these are a little unexpected; I would have thought at least that +i would have prevented the write. How about reflink? $ rm -rf a b $ xfs_io -f -c 'pwrite -S 0x58 0 64k' a wrote 65536/65536 bytes at offset 0 64 KiB, 16 ops; 0.0000 sec (1.744 GiB/sec and 457142.8571 ops/sec) $ xfs_io -f -c 'pwrite -S 0x58 0 64k' b wrote 65536/65536 bytes at offset 0 64 KiB, 16 ops; 0.0000 sec (1.969 GiB/sec and 516129.0323 ops/sec) $ xfs_io b xfs_io> [1]+ Stopped xfs_io b $ chmod a-w b $ sudo chown root:root b $ sudo chattr +i b $ fg xfs_io b xfs_io> reflink a 0 0 4k XFS_IOC_CLONE_RANGE: Operation not permitted xfs_io> [1]+ Stopped xfs_io b $ sudo chattr -i b $ fg xfs_io b xfs_io> reflink a 0 0 4k linked 4096/4096 bytes at offset 0 4 KiB, 1 ops; 0.0004 sec (7.988 MiB/sec and 2044.9898 ops/sec) xfs_io> We cannot reflink into a file that becomes immutable after we open it for write, but we can reflink into a file that loses its write permissions after we open it.

Summarized: op: after +immutable? after chmod a-w? write yes yes clonerange no yes dedupe no yes newcopyrange no no My reaction: I don't think that writes should be allowed after an administrator marks a file immutable (but that's a separate issue) but I do think we should be consistent in allowing copying into a file that has lost its write permissions after we opened the file for write, like we do for write() and the remap ioct.... *OH* Now I remember what the FI_DEDUPERANGE inode_permission call is for! It's because dedupe tools want to be able to open a file readonly and have dedupe remap another file's identical blocks into the readonly file, provided that the process would have been able to open the file for writing had it asked.
