When mapped POSIX ACL is used, we are ignoring errors when trying to remove a POSIX ACL xattr that does not exist. On Linux hosts we would get ENODATA in such cases, on macOS hosts however we get ENOATTR instead.
As we can be sure that ENOATTR is defined as being identical on Linux hosts (at least by qemu/xattr.h), it is safe to fix this issue by simply comparing against ENOATTR instead of ENODATA. This patch fixes e.g. a command on Linux guest like: cp --preserve=mode old new Signed-off-by: Christian Schoenebeck <qemu_...@crudebyte.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/2866993.yOYK24bMf6@silver/ Reviewed-by: Greg Kurz <gr...@kaod.org> --- hw/9pfs/9p-posix-acl.c | 12 ++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/hw/9pfs/9p-posix-acl.c b/hw/9pfs/9p-posix-acl.c index eadae270dd..4b2cb3c66c 100644 --- a/hw/9pfs/9p-posix-acl.c +++ b/hw/9pfs/9p-posix-acl.c @@ -65,7 +65,11 @@ static int mp_pacl_removexattr(FsContext *ctx, int ret; ret = local_removexattr_nofollow(ctx, path, MAP_ACL_ACCESS); - if (ret == -1 && errno == ENODATA) { + /* + * macOS returns ENOATTR (!=ENODATA on macOS), whereas Linux returns + * ENODATA (==ENOATTR on Linux), so checking for ENOATTR is fine + */ + if (ret == -1 && errno == ENOATTR) { /* * We don't get ENODATA error when trying to remove a * posix acl that is not present.
