Subject: [ 07/13] ecryptfs: read on a directory should return EISDIR if not supported
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2012 01:44:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120312004411.604285381@1wt.eu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <fec4dd6c17083169f2e217caca7375ef@local>

2.6.27-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com>

commit 323ef68faf1bbd9b1e66aea268fd09d358d7e8ab upstream.

read() calls against a file descriptor connected to a directory are
incorrectly returning EINVAL rather than EISDIR:

  [EISDIR]
    [XSI] [Option Start] The fildes argument refers to a directory and the
    implementation does not allow the directory to be read using read()
    or pread(). The readdir() function should be used instead. [Option End]

This occurs because we do not have a .read operation defined for
ecryptfs directories.  Connect this up to generic_read_dir().
