I was thinking that individual flags could be set through the ioctl, but it takes the whole set. I don't really see the need to keep my patch from a safety perspective, but do what you want.

The code does: flags = flags & EXT3_FL_USER_MODIFIABLE; flags |= oldflags & ~EXT3_FL_USER_MODIFIABLE; ei->i_flags = flags; So all EXT3_FL_USER_MODIFIABLE are overwritten by what user has supplied, which happens to be a superset of flags influenced by ext3_get_inode_flags().

The only filesystem, which is capable to store such flags and is not converted is JFS - I was not able to find a suitable place for copying flags from VFS inode to ondisk copy (giving CC to Shaggy)...

[PATCH] Copy i_flags to ext3 inode flags on write (version 2)
Hi,
attached is a second version of a patch that stores inode flags such as
S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc. from i_flags to EXT3_I(inode)->i_flags when
inode is written to disk. The same thing is done on GETFLAGS ioctl.
Quota code changes these flags on quota files (to make it harder for
sysadmin to screw himself) and these changes were not correctly
propagated into the filesystem (especially, lsattr did not show them and
users were wondering...). Andrew, could you please put the patch into your
queue? Thanks.

Propagate flags such as S_APPEND, S_IMMUTABLE, etc. from i_flags into
ext3-specific i_flags. Hence, when someone sets these flags via a different
interface than ioctl, they are stored correctly.
