Subject: [Cluster-devel] [PATCH 1/2] gfs2: don't return ENODATA in __gfs2_xattr_set unless replacing
Date: Thu, 31 Aug 2017 09:11:26 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <85277283.4008685.1504185086884.JavaMail.zimbra@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <ec99119d7fbbeffbaa857436ddb594cacca93e35.1503811285.git.ernesto.mnd.fernandez@gmail.com>

----- Original Message -----
| The function __gfs2_xattr_set() will return -ENODATA when called to
| remove a xattr that does not exist. The result is that setfacl will
| show an exit status of 1 when called to set only a file's mode bits
| (on a file with no ACLs), despite succeeding. A "No data available"
| error will be printed as well.
| 
| To fix this return 0 instead, except when the XATTR_REPLACE flag is
| set, in which case -ENODATA is appropriate. This is consistent with
| how most other xattr setting functions work, in other filesystems.
