Subject: [PATCH 1/2] reiserfs: fix oops while creating privroot with selinux enabled
Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 15:59:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BA1348E.9070201@suse.com> (raw)

 Commit 57fe60df contains a bug that will cause it to oops when
 mounting a file system that didn't previously contain extended
 attributes on a system using security.* xattrs.

 The issue is that while creating the privroot during mount
 reiserfs_security_init calls reiserfs_xattr_jcreate_nblocks
 which dereferences the xattr root. The xattr root doesn't exist, so
 we get an oops.

 This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15309
