xfs_attr_[get|remove]() have unlocked attribute fork checks to optimize away a lock cycle in cases where the fork does not exist or is otherwise empty. This check is not safe, however, because an attribute fork short form to extent format conversion includes a transient state that causes the xfs_inode_hasattr() check to fail. Specifically, xfs_attr_shortform_to_leaf() creates an empty extent format attribute fork and then adds the existing shortform attributes to it. This means that lookup of an existing xattr can spuriously return -ENOATTR when racing against a setxattr that causes the associated format conversion. This was originally reproduced by an untar on a particularly configured glusterfs volume, but can also be reproduced on demand with properly crafted xattr requests. The format conversion occurs under the exclusive ilock. xfs_attr_get() and xfs_attr_remove() already have the proper locking and checks further down in the functions to handle this situation correctly. Drop the unlocked checks to avoid the spurious failure and rely on the existing logic.

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.
