Subject: [patch 3/4] fat: dont call notify_change
Date: Tue, 01 Jul 2008 15:01:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080701130154.992343794@szeredi.hu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080701130125.529844715@szeredi.hu>
[-- Attachment #1: fat-dont-call-notify_change.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2816 bytes --]
From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz>
The FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES ioctl() calls notify_change() to change
the file mode before changing the inode attributes. Replace with
explicit calls to security_inode_setattr(), fat_setattr() and
fsnotify_change().
This is equivalent to the original. The reason it is needed, is that
later in the series we move the immutable check into notify_change().
That would break the FAT_IOCTL_SET_ATTRIBUTES ioctl, as it needs to
perform the mode change regardless of the immutability of the file.
[Fix error if fat is built as a module. Thanks to OGAWA Hirofumi for
noticing.]
