commit 2ab0837cb91b7de507daa145d17b3b6b2efb3abf upstream. When looking up a non-existent file, efivarfs returns -EINVAL if the file does not conform to the NAME-GUID format and -ENOENT if it does. This is caused by efivars_d_hash() returning -EINVAL if the name is not formatted correctly. This error is returned before simple_lookup() returns a negative dentry, and is the error value that the user sees. Fix by removing this check. If the file does not exist, simple_lookup() will return a negative dentry leading to -ENOENT and efivarfs_create() already has a validity check before it creates an entry (and will correctly return -EINVAL) Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [ardb: make efivarfs_valid_name() static] Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |
