From f696a3659fc4b3a3bf4bc83d9dbec5e5a2ffd929 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2008 13:41:58 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] move executable checking into ->permission() For execute permission on a regular files we need to check if file has any execute bits at all, regardless of capabilites. This check is normally performed by generic_permission() but was also added to the case when the filesystem defines its own ->permission() method. In the latter case the filesystem should be responsible for performing this check. Move the check from inode_permission() inside filesystems which are not calling generic_permission(). Create a helper function execute_ok() that returns true if the inode is a directory or if any execute bits are present in i_mode. Also fix up the following code: - coda control file is never executable - sysctl files are never executable - hfs_permission seems broken on MAY_EXEC, remove - hfsplus_permission is eqivalent to generic_permission(), remove Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi --- fs/hfsplus/inode.c | 13 ------------- 1 file changed, 13 deletions(-) (limited to 'fs/hfsplus') diff --git a/fs/hfsplus/inode.c b/fs/hfsplus/inode.c index 963be644297..b207f0e6fc2 100644 --- a/fs/hfsplus/inode.c +++ b/fs/hfsplus/inode.c @@ -238,18 +238,6 @@ static void hfsplus_set_perms(struct inode *inode, struct hfsplus_perm *perms) perms->dev = cpu_to_be32(HFSPLUS_I(inode).dev); } -static int hfsplus_permission(struct inode *inode, int mask) -{ - /* MAY_EXEC is also used for lookup, if no x bit is set allow lookup, - * open_exec has the same test, so it's still not executable, if a x bit - * is set fall back to standard permission check. - */ - if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode) && mask & MAY_EXEC && !(inode->i_mode & 0111)) - return 0; - return generic_permission(inode, mask, NULL); -} - - static int hfsplus_file_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) { if (HFSPLUS_IS_RSRC(inode)) @@ -281,7 +269,6 @@ static int hfsplus_file_release(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) static const struct inode_operations hfsplus_file_inode_operations = { .lookup = hfsplus_file_lookup, .truncate = hfsplus_file_truncate, - .permission = hfsplus_permission, .setxattr = hfsplus_setxattr, .getxattr = hfsplus_getxattr, .listxattr = hfsplus_listxattr, -- cgit v1.2.3
