I noticed LAYOUTGET(LAYOUTIOMODE4_RW) returning NFS4ERR_ACCESS
unexpectedly. The NFS client had created a file with mode 0444, and
the server had returned a write delegation on the OPEN(CREATE). The
client was requesting a RW layout using the write delegation stateid
so that it could flush file modifications.
Creating a read-only file does not seem to be problematic for
NFSv4.1 without pNFS, so I began looking at NFSD's implementation of
LAYOUTGET.
The failure was because fh_verify() was doing a permission check as
part of verifying the FH presented during the LAYOUTGET. It uses the
loga_iomode value to specify the @accmode argument to fh_verify().
fh_verify(MAY_WRITE) on a file whose mode is 0444 fails with -EACCES.
To permit LAYOUT* operations in this case, add OWNER_OVERRIDE when
checking the access permission of the incoming file handle for
LAYOUTGET and LAYOUTCOMMIT.
