[PATCH] Smack: reset inode security blob on remove_xattr

From: Etienne Basset
Date: Tue Apr 14 2009 - 14:14:34 EST


hello,

the patch below on top of current -git corrects the behavior of smack_inode_removexattr
to reset the security blob on the inode on SMACK64 xattr removal.
(I'm not quite sure of what the desired behavior on removal of SMACKIPIN/SMACKIPOUT should be)
Here is the behavior of 'attr -r', with and without the patch

without patch :
---------------
debian:/tmp# attr -S -g SMACK64 toto
Attribute "SMACK64" had a 6 byte value for toto:
pouet
debian:/tmp# attr -S -r SMACK64 toto
debian:/tmp# attr -S -g SMACK64 toto
Attribute "SMACK64" had a 6 byte value for toto:
pouet


with patch :
------------
debian:/tmp# attr -S -g SMACK64 toto
Attribute "SMACK64" had a 6 byte value for toto:
pouet
debian:/tmp# attr -S -r SMACK64 toto
debian:/tmp# attr -S -g SMACK64 toto
Attribute "SMACK64" had a 2 byte value for toto:
_


---

the following patch corrects the behavior of smack_inode_removexattr
to reset the security blob on the inode on SMACK xattr removal
and to reset the security blob on socket on SMACKIPIN/SMACKIPOUT
