From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== [ Upstream commit 51234eac5dd8b5feda9a3a8fa766f5398ecf91e3 ] commit b99c2d913810e56682a538c9f2394d76fca808f8 upstream. Before 4bacc9c9234c ("overlayfs: Make f_path...") file->f_path pointed to the underlying file, hence suid/sgid removal on write worked fine. After that patch file->f_path pointed to the overlay file, and the file mode bits weren't copied to overlay_inode->i_mode. So the suid/sgid removal simply stopped working. The fix is to copy the mode bits, but then ovl_setattr() needs to clear ATTR_MODE to avoid the BUG() in notify_change(). So do this first, then in the next patch copy the mode.
