[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH 0/2] ocfs2: two bug fixes about xattr and inline-data

[Tiger Yang <tiger.yang@oracle.com>]

Mark and Joel,

I found two serious bugs about xattr and inline-data.

the first bug:
in ocfs2_mknod(), we check and found the ACL or security xattr entry 
could be set into inode in ocfs2_calc_xattr_init(), then don't reserve 
block for them. But in ocfs2_mknod_locked(), if we found ocfs2 support 
inline-data, then set id_count with the max_inline_data. After that, we 
set acl/security xattr entry in ocfs2_init_acl() or 
ocfs2_init_security_set(), but in there we found inode is full, then 
panic at ocfs2_claim_metadata in ocfs2_xattr_block_set.

the second bug:
we don't check inline xattr in ocfs2_try_to_write_inline_data(), so the 
inline data may overwrite the xattr entries which have already in inode.


thanks,
tiger
