However security_path_mknod and its consumer TOMOYO is expecting 'dev' rather than 'new_decode_dev(dev)'. This will result in TOMOYO doing new_decode_dev(new_decode_dev(dev)) (which is wrong) when security_path_mknod() is called from aufs' vfsub_mknod Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa Signed-off-by: John Johansen [bwh: Change source paths for Debian] --- a/fs/aufs/vfsub.c +++ b/fs/aufs/vfsub.c @@ -276,7 +276,7 @@ int vfsub_mknod(struct inode *dir, struct path *path, int mo d = path->dentry; path->dentry = d->d_parent; - err = security_path_mknod(path, d, mode, dev); + err = security_path_mknod(path, d, mode, new_encode_dev(dev)); path->dentry = d; if (unlikely(err)) goto out;
