Subject: [PATCH] sysfs: Do not return POSIX ACL xattrs via listxattr
Date: Mon, 17 Sep 2018 17:38:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180917153806.10771-1-agruenba@redhat.com> (raw)

Commit 786534b92f3c introduced a regression that caused listxattr to
return the POSIX ACL attribute names even though sysfs doesn't support
POSIX ACLs.  This happens because simple_xattr_list checks for NULL
i_acl / i_default_acl, but inode_init_always initializes those fields to
ACL_NOT_CACHED ((void *)-1).  For example:

    $ getfattr -m- -d /sys
    /sys: system.posix_acl_access: Operation not supported
    /sys: system.posix_acl_default: Operation not supported

Fix this in simple_xattr_list by checking if the filesystem supports
POSIX ACLs.

Fixes: 786534b92f3c ("tmpfs: listxattr should include POSIX ACL xattrs")
