Then I don't understand /* Check for setting the inode time. */ if (ia_valid & (ATTR_MTIME_SET | ATTR_ATIME_SET)) { if (current->fsuid != inode->i_uid && !capable(CAP_FOWNER)) goto error; } in inode_change_ok. This seems to me exactly like the check needed. - -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGkSv12ijCOnn/RHQRAkp8AJ9q9vuy1ACjiYHteRac4Q86WO5wlgCfbr11 I0d6V5VGJGmpkuc9NsO6lkE= =imhB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
