Subject: [PATCH] ocfs2: fix ocfs2_init_security_and_acl() to initialize acl
 correctly

commit 32918dd9f19e5960af4cdfa41190bb843fb2247b upstream.

We need to re-initialize the security for a new reflinked inode with its
parent dirs if it isn't specified to be preserved for ocfs2_reflink().
However, the code logic is broken at ocfs2_init_security_and_acl()
although ocfs2_init_security_get() succeed.  As a result,
ocfs2_acl_init() does not involked and therefore the default ACL of
parent dir was missing on the new inode.

Note this was introduced by 9d8f13ba3 ("security: new
security_inode_init_security API adds function callback")

To reproduce:

    set default ACL for the parent dir(ocfs2 in this case):
    $ setfacl -m default:user:jeff:rwx ../ocfs2/
    $ getfacl ../ocfs2/
    # file: ../ocfs2/
    # owner: jeff
    # group: jeff
    user::rwx
    group::r-x
    other::r-x
    default:user::rwx
    default:user:jeff:rwx
    default:group::r-x
    default:mask::rwx
    default:other::r-x

    $ touch a
    $ getfacl a
    # file: a
    # owner: jeff
    # group: jeff
    user::rw-
    group::rw-
    other::r--

Before patching, create reflink file b from a, the user
default ACL entry(user:jeff:rwx)was missing:

    $ ./ocfs2_reflink a b
    $ getfacl b
    # file: b
    # owner: jeff
    # group: jeff
    user::rw-
    group::rw-
    other::r--

In this case, the end user can also observed an error message at syslog:

  (ocfs2_reflink,3229,2):ocfs2_init_security_and_acl:7193 ERROR: status = 0

After applying this patch, create reflink file c from a:

    $ ./ocfs2_reflink a c
    $ getfacl c
    # file: c
    # owner: jeff
    # group: jeff
    user::rw-
    user:jeff:rwx			#effective:rw-
    group::r-x			#effective:r--
    mask::rw-
    other::r--

#  define REFLINK_ATTR_NONE 0
#endif
#ifndef REFLINK_ATTR_PRESERVE
#  define REFLINK_ATTR_PRESERVE 1

#ifndef OCFS2_IOC_REFLINK
	struct reflink_arguments {
		uint64_t old_path;
		uint64_t new_path;
		uint64_t preserve;
	};

#  define OCFS2_IOC_REFLINK _IOW ('o', 4, struct reflink_arguments)
#endif
	struct reflink_arguments args = {
		.old_path = (unsigned long) src_name,
		.new_path = (unsigned long) dst_name,
		.preserve = preserve_attrs ? REFLINK_ATTR_PRESERVE :
					     REFLINK_ATTR_NONE,
	};

	fd = open(src_name, O_RDONLY);
	if (fd < 0) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Failed to open %s: %s\n",
			src_name, strerror(errno));
		return -1;
	}

	if (ioctl(fd, OCFS2_IOC_REFLINK, &args) < 0) {
		fprintf(stderr, "Failed to reflink %s to %s: %s\n",
			src_name, dst_name, strerror(errno));
		return -1;
	}
}

int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	if (argc != 3) {
		fprintf(stdout, "Usage: %s source dest\n", argv[0]);
		return 1;
	}

	return reflink_file(argv[1], argv[2], 0);
}
