When a directory has a default ACL and a subdirectory is created under that directory, btrfs_init_acl() is called when the subdirectory's inode is created to initialize the inode's ACL (inherited from the parent directory) but it was clearing the ACL from the inode after setting it if posix_acl_create() returned success, instead of clearing it only if it returned an error. To reproduce this issue: $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/loop0 $ mount /dev/loop0 /mnt $ mkdir /mnt/acl $ setfacl -d --set u::rwx,g::rwx,o::- /mnt/acl $ getfacl /mnt/acl user::rwx group::rwx other::r-x default:user::rwx default:group::rwx default:other::--- $ mkdir /mnt/acl/dir1 $ getfacl /mnt/acl/dir1 user::rwx group::rwx other::--- After unmounting and mounting again the filesystem, fgetacl returned the expected ACL: $ umount /mnt/acl $ mount /dev/loop0 /mnt $ getfacl /mnt/acl/dir1 user::rwx group::rwx other::--- default:user::rwx default:group::rwx default:other::--- Meaning that the underlying xattr was persisted.
