Subject: [PATCH v2 -next 02/18] LSM: pass struct path to the inode_setsecctx hook
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2026 20:54:08 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261015125425.3246251-3-caixinchen1@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261015125425.3246251-1-caixinchen1@huawei.com>

The inode_setsecctx hook and its security_inode_setsecctx() caller
in fs/nfsd operate on a dentry even though both have a struct path
available.  The SELinux and Smack implementations write the label
through __vfs_setxattr_locked(), whose idmap argument they hardcode
to &nop_mnt_idmap.

Switch the hook to take a const struct path so that the upcoming
conversion of the xattr helpers to struct path can be reflected
directly in the implementations.  For now the implementations keep
passing &nop_mnt_idmap together with path->dentry to
__vfs_setxattr_locked(), preserving the current behavior; they will
be switched to pass the path itself once the xattr helpers take one.

Assisted-by: opencode: glm-5.3
