4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 03bea60409328de54e4ff7ec41672e12a9cb0908 upstream. When truncating a file we should check write access on the underlying inode. And we should do so on the lower file as well (before copy-up) for consistency. Original patch and test case by Aihua Zhang. - - >o >o - - test.c - - >o >o - - #include <stdio.h> #include <errno.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int ret; ret = truncate(argv[0], 4096); if (ret != -1) { fprintf(stderr, "truncate(argv[0]) should have failed\n"); return 1; } if (errno != ETXTBSY) { perror("truncate(argv[0])"); return 1; } return 0; } - - >o >o - - >o >o - - >o >o - - Reported-by: Aihua Zhang <zhangaihua1@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/overlayfs/inode.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+) --- a/fs/overlayfs/inode.c +++ b/fs/overlayfs/inode.c @@ -59,16 +59,37 @@ int ovl_setattr(struct dentry *dentry, s if (err) goto out; + if (attr->ia_valid & ATTR_SIZE) { + struct inode *realinode = d_inode(ovl_dentry_real(dentry)); + + err = -ETXTBSY; + if (atomic_read(&realinode->i_writecount) < 0) + goto out_drop_write; + } + err = ovl_copy_up(dentry); if (!err) { + struct inode *winode = NULL; + upperdentry = ovl_dentry_upper(dentry); + if (attr->ia_valid & ATTR_SIZE) { + winode = d_inode(upperdentry); + err = get_write_access(winode); + if (err) + goto out_drop_write; + } + inode_lock(upperdentry->d_inode); err = notify_change(upperdentry, attr, NULL); if (!err) ovl_copyattr(upperdentry->d_inode, dentry->d_inode); inode_unlock(upperdentry->d_inode); + + if (winode) + put_write_access(winode); } +out_drop_write: ovl_drop_write(dentry); out: return err; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
