ext4: do not set posix acls on xattr inodes
We don't need acls on xattr inodes because they are not directly accessible from user mode. Besides lockdep complains about recursive locking of xattr_sem as seen below. ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 4.11.0-rc8+ #402 Not tainted --------------------------------------------- python/1894 is trying to acquire lock: (&ei->xattr_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff804878a6>] ext4_xattr_get+0x66/0x270 but task is already holding lock: (&ei->xattr_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff80489500>] ext4_xattr_set_handle+0xa0/0x5d0 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 ---- lock(&ei->xattr_sem); lock(&ei->xattr_sem); *** DEADLOCK *** May be due to missing lock nesting notation 3 locks held by python/1894: #0: (sb_writers#10){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffff803d829f>] mnt_want_write+0x1f/0x50 #1: (&sb->s_type->i_mutex_key#15){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff803dda27>] vfs_setxattr+0x57/0xb0 #2: (&ei->xattr_sem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff80489500>] ext4_xattr_set_handle+0xa0/0x5d0 stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 1894 Comm: python Not tainted 4.11.0-rc8+ #402 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x67/0x99 __lock_acquire+0x5f3/0x1830 lock_acquire+0xb5/0x1d0 down_read+0x2f/0x60 ext4_xattr_get+0x66/0x270 ext4_get_acl+0x43/0x1e0 get_acl+0x72/0xf0 posix_acl_create+0x5e/0x170 ext4_init_acl+0x21/0xc0 __ext4_new_inode+0xffd/0x16b0 ext4_xattr_set_entry+0x5ea/0xb70 ext4_xattr_block_set+0x1b5/0x970 ext4_xattr_set_handle+0x351/0x5d0 ext4_xattr_set+0x124/0x180 ext4_xattr_user_set+0x34/0x40 __vfs_setxattr+0x66/0x80 __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x69/0x1c0 vfs_setxattr+0xa2/0xb0 setxattr+0x129/0x160 path_setxattr+0x87/0xb0 SyS_setxattr+0xf/0x20 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x18/0xad Signed-off-by: Tahsin Erdogan <tahsin@google.com> Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
