Hello all,
I am facing a problem when trying to boot linux 2.6.37 on a new
architecture.
At the end of the boot, it tries to launch /init by executing a sys_execve()
Here is the what it does:
sys_execve()
|-> do_execve()
|-> prepare_binprm()
|->security_bprm_set_creds()
|->cap_bprm_set_creds()
|->get_file_caps()
|->get_vfs_caps_from_disk()
In the get_vfs_caps_from_disk(), these is a verification to know if
inode->i_op->getxattr
has been initialized.
In my case, it returns and error value, because this field is not
initialized.
So I am wondering by who and where this field is initialized?
And what is the aim of getxattr?
Thanks in advance!
