From 799243a389bde0de10fa21ca1ca453d2fe538b85 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Kasatkin Date: Tue, 29 May 2012 11:02:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: increment iversion when a file is truncated When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, iversion is not updated. This patch uses ATTR_SIZE flag as an indication to increment iversion. Mimi said: On fput(), i_version is used to detect and flag files that have changed and need to be re-measured in the IMA measurement policy. When a file is truncated with truncate()/ftruncate() and then closed, i_version is not updated. As a result, although the file has changed, it will not be re-measured and added to the IMA measurement list on subsequent access.
