The patch titled unionfs: fix unionfs_setattr to handle ATTR_KILL_S*ID has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is unionfs-fix-unionfs_setattr-to-handle-attr_kill_sid.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: unionfs: fix unionfs_setattr to handle ATTR_KILL_S*ID From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> Don't allow unionfs_setattr to trip the BUG() in notify_change. Clear ATTR_MODE if the either ATTR_KILL_S*ID is set. This also allows the lower filesystem to interpret these bits in its own way.
