nfs: Fix NFS v4 client handling of MAY_EXEC in nfs_permission.
commit 7ee2cb7f32b299c2b06a31fde155457203e4b7dd upstream. The problem is that permission checking is skipped if atomic open is possible, but when exec opens a file, it just opens it O_READONLY which means EXEC permission will not be checked at that time. This problem is observed by the following sequence (executed as root): mount -t nfs4 server:/ /mnt4 echo "ls" >/mnt4/foo chmod 744 /mnt4/foo su guest -c "mnt4/foo" Signed-off-by: Frank Filz <ffilzlnx@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Tested-by: Eugene Teo <eugeneteo@kernel.sg> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
