X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27-rc1~650
X-Git-Url: http://git.engineering.redhat.com/?p=linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=746f1e558bc52b9693c1a1ecdab60f8392e5ff18

eCryptfs: Privileged kthread for lower file opens

eCryptfs would really like to have read-write access to all files in the
lower filesystem.  Right now, the persistent lower file may be opened
read-only if the attempt to open it read-write fails.  One way to keep
from having to do that is to have a privileged kthread that can open the
lower persistent file on behalf of the user opening the eCryptfs file;
this patch implements this functionality.

This patch will properly allow a less-privileged user to open the eCryptfs
file, followed by a more-privileged user opening the eCryptfs file, with
the first user only being able to read and the second user being able to
both read and write.  eCryptfs currently does this wrong; it will wind up
calling vfs_write() on a file that was opened read-only.  This is fixed in
this patch.
