vfs: allow file truncations when both suid and write permissions set
When suid is set and the non-owner user has write permission, any writing into this file should be allowed and suid should be removed after that. However, current kernel only allows writing without truncations, when we do truncations on that file, we get EPERM. This is a bug. Steps to reproduce this bug: % ls -l rootdir/file1 -rwsrwsrwx 1 root root 3 Jun 25 15:42 rootdir/file1 % echo h > rootdir/file1 zsh: operation not permitted: rootdir/file1 % ls -l rootdir/file1 -rwsrwsrwx 1 root root 3 Jun 25 15:42 rootdir/file1 % echo h >> rootdir/file1 % ls -l rootdir/file1 -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Jun 25 16:34 rootdir/file1 Signed-off-by: WANG Cong <[email protected]> Cc: Eric Sandeen <[email protected]> Acked-by: Eric Paris <[email protected]> Cc: Eugene Teo <[email protected]> Cc: Al Viro <[email protected]> Cc: OGAWA Hirofumi <[email protected]> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <[email protected]> Cc: Stephen Smalley <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: James Morris <[email protected]>
