Message-Id: <20201031113456.846597516@linuxfoundation.org> Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2020 12:35:25 +0100 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Hongyu Jin <hongyu.jin@...soc.com>, Chao Yu <yuchao0@...wei.com>, Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@...hat.com> Subject: [PATCH 5.4 29/49] erofs: avoid duplicated permission check for "trusted." xattrs From: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@...hat.com> commit d578b46db69d125a654f509bdc9091d84e924dc8 upstream. Don't recheck it since xattr_permission() already checks CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability. Just follow 5d3ce4f70172 ("f2fs: avoid duplicated permission check for "trusted." xattrs") Reported-by: Hongyu Jin <hongyu.jin@...soc.com> [ Gao Xiang: since it could cause some complex Android overlay permission issue as well on android-5.4+, it'd be better to backport to 5.4+ rather than pure cleanup on mainline. ] Cc: <stable@...r.kernel.org> # 5.4+ Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200811070020.6339-1-hsiangkao@redhat.com Reviewed-by: Chao Yu <yuchao0@...wei.com> Signed-off-by: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@...hat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> --- fs/erofs/xattr.c | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) --- a/fs/erofs/xattr.c +++ b/fs/erofs/xattr.c @@ -473,8 +473,6 @@ static int erofs_xattr_generic_get(const return -EOPNOTSUPP; break; case EROFS_XATTR_INDEX_TRUSTED: - if (!capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN)) - return -EPERM; break; case EROFS_XATTR_INDEX_SECURITY: break;
