commit b51111271b upstream.
For a filesystem which has btrfs read-only property set to true, all
write operations including xattr should be denied. However, security
xattr can still be changed even if btrfs ro property is true.
This happens because xattr_permission() does not have any restrictions
on security.*, system.* and in some cases trusted.* from VFS and
the decision is left to the underlying filesystem. See comments in
xattr_permission() for more details.
This patch checks if the root is read-only before performing the set
xattr operation.
Testcase:
DEV=/dev/vdb
MNT=/mnt
mkfs.btrfs -f $DEV
mount $DEV $MNT
echo "file one" > $MNT/f1
setfattr -n "security.one" -v 2 $MNT/f1
btrfs property set /mnt ro true
setfattr -n "security.one" -v 1 $MNT/f1
umount $MNT

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
