With FAN_ONDIR set, the user can end up getting events, which it hasn't
marked. This was revealed with fanotify04 testcase failure on
Linux-4.0-rc1, and is a regression from 3.19, revealed with 66ba93c0d7
("fanotify: don't set FAN_ONDIR implicitly on a marks ignored mask").
# /opt/ltp/testcases/bin/fanotify04
[ ... ]
fanotify04 7 TPASS : event generated properly for type 100000
fanotify04 8 TFAIL : fanotify04.c:147: got unexpected event 30
fanotify04 9 TPASS : No event as expected
The testcase sets the adds the following marks : FAN_OPEN | FAN_ONDIR for
a fanotify on a dir. Then does an open(), followed by close() of the
directory and expects to see an event FAN_OPEN(0x20). However, the
fanotify returns (FAN_OPEN|FAN_CLOSE_NOWRITE(0x10)). This happens due to
the flaw in the check for event_mask in fanotify_should_send_event() which
does:
if (event_mask & marks_mask & ~marks_ignored_mask)
return true;
where, event_mask == (FAN_ONDIR | FAN_CLOSE_NOWRITE),
marks_mask == (FAN_ONDIR | FAN_OPEN),
marks_ignored_mask == 0
Fix this by masking the outgoing events to the user, as we already take
care of FAN_ONDIR and FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD.
