Subject: mm/shmem: fix chattr fsflags support in tmpfs
Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2022 21:51:09 -0700 (PDT)
ext[234] have always allowed unimplemented chattr flags to be set, but
other filesystems have tended to be stricter. Follow the stricter
approach for tmpfs: I don't want to have to explain why csu attributes
don't actually work, and we won't need to update the chattr(1) manpage;
and it's never wrong to start off strict, relaxing later if persuaded.
Allow only a (append only) i (immutable) A (no atime) and d (no dump).
Although lsattr showed 'A' inherited, the NOATIME behavior was not being
inherited: because nothing sync'ed FS_NOATIME_FL to S_NOATIME. Add
shmem_set_inode_flags() to sync the flags, using inode_set_flags() to
avoid that instant of lost immutablility during fileattr_set().
But that change switched generic/079 from passing to failing: because
FS_IMMUTABLE_FL and FS_APPEND_FL had been unconventionally included in the
INHERITED fsflags: remove them and generic/079 is back to passing.
