[PATCH 03/41] libxfs: enforce metadata inode flag

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add checks for the metadata inode flag so that we don't ever leak
metadata inodes out to userspace, and we don't ever try to read a
regular inode as metadata.
