Specifically DIRSYNC may only be set on directories and IMMUTABLE and APPEND may not be set on links. Tighten that to disallow TOPDIR being set on non-directories and SECRM, UNRM, COMPR, SYNC, DIRTY, COMPRBLK, NOCOMPR, ECOMPR, INDEX, JOURNAL_DATA, NOTAIL, HUGE_FILE, EXTENTS or EXT_MIGRATE being set on anything but regular files or directories. Introduce a flags masking function which masks flags based on mode and use it during inode creation and when flags are set via the ioctl to facilitate future consistency. Signed-off-by: Duane Griffin -- The specific flags masked out here are those suggested by Andreas, as well as IMMUTABLE, which I included to match the behaviour of the existing code, and EXT_MIGRATE. It would be good to get some review of these. --- fs/ext4/ext4.h | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ fs/ext4/ialloc.c | 14 +++++--------- fs/ext4/ioctl.c | 3 +-- 3 files changed, 30 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/ext4/ext4.h b/fs/ext4/ext4.h index 1a4faa5..2aafd1b 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/ext4.h +++ b/fs/ext4/ext4.h @@ -243,6 +243,30 @@ struct ext4_group_desc EXT4_JOURNAL_DATA_FL | EXT4_NOTAIL_FL|\ EXT4_DIRSYNC_FL) +/* Flags that are inappropriate for regular files. */ +#define EXT4_REG_FLMASK (EXT4_DIRSYNC_FL | EXT4_TOPDIR_FL) + +/* Flags that are inappropriate for non-directories/regular files. */ +#define EXT4_OTHER_FLMASK (EXT4_SECRM_FL | EXT4_UNRM_FL | EXT4_COMPR_FL |\ + EXT4_SYNC_FL | EXT4_IMMUTABLE_FL | EXT4_APPEND_FL |\ + EXT4_DIRTY_FL | EXT4_COMPRBLK_FL | EXT4_NOCOMPR_FL|\ + EXT4_ECOMPR_FL | EXT4_INDEX_FL |\ + EXT4_JOURNAL_DATA_FL | EXT4_NOTAIL_FL |\ + EXT4_DIRSYNC_FL | EXT4_TOPDIR_FL |\ + EXT4_HUGE_FILE_FL | EXT4_EXTENTS_FL |\ + EXT4_EXT_MIGRATE) + +/* Mask out flags that are inappropriate for the given type of inode. */ +static inline __le32 ext4_mask_flags(__le16 mode, __le32 flags) +{ + if (S_ISDIR(mode)) + return flags; + else if (S_ISREG(mode)) + return flags & ~EXT4_REG_FLMASK; + else + return flags & ~EXT4_OTHER_FLMASK; +} + /* * Inode dynamic state flags */ diff --git a/fs/ext4/ialloc.c b/fs/ext4/ialloc.c index ff25d57..11fb561 100644 --- a/fs/ext4/ialloc.c +++ b/fs/ext4/ialloc.c @@ -698,16 +698,12 @@ got: ei->i_disksize = 0; /* - * Don't inherit extent flag from directory.
