From 2e8671cb566da993425d324fc355af31edc6e7f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Duane Griffin Date: Wed, 7 Jan 2009 18:07:26 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] ext3: don't inherit inappropriate inode flags from parent At present INDEX is the only flag that new ext3 inodes do NOT inherit from their parent. In addition prevent the flags DIRTY, ECOMPR, IMAGIC and TOPDIR from being inherited. List inheritable flags explicitly to prevent future flags from accidentally being inherited. This fixes the TOPDIR flag inheritance bug reported at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9866.
