ceph_set_acl() calls __ceph_setattr() if the setacl operation needs to modify inode's i_mode. __ceph_setattr() updates inode's i_mode, then calls posix_acl_chmod(). The problem is that __ceph_setattr() calls posix_acl_chmod() before sending the setattr request. The get_acl() call in posix_acl_chmod() can trigger a getxattr request. The reply of the getxattr request can restore inode's i_mode to its old value. The set_acl() call in posix_acl_chmod() sees old value of inode's i_mode, so it calls __ceph_setattr() again.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
