Mount options (uid, gid, mode) are silently ignored when debugfs is mounted. This is a regression introduced during the conversion to the new mount API. When the mount API conversion was done, the parsed options were never applied to the superblock when it was reused. As a result, the mount options were ignored when debugfs was mounted. Fix this by following the same pattern as the tracefs fix in commite4d32142d1("tracing: Fix tracefs mount options"). Call debugfs_reconfigure() in debugfs_get_tree() to apply the mount options to the superblock after it has been created or reused. As an example, with the bug the "mode" mount option is ignored: $ mount -o mode=0666 -t debugfs debugfs /tmp/debugfs_test $ mount | grep debugfs_test debugfs on /tmp/debugfs_test type debugfs (rw,relatime) $ ls -ld /tmp/debugfs_test drwx------ 25 root root 0 Aug 4 14:16 /tmp/debugfs_test With the fix applied, it works as expected: $ mount -o mode=0666 -t debugfs debugfs /tmp/debugfs_test $ mount | grep debugfs_test debugfs on /tmp/debugfs_test type debugfs (rw,relatime,mode=666) $ ls -ld /tmp/debugfs_test drw-rw-rw- 37 root root 0 Aug 2 17:28 /tmp/debugfs_test Fixes:a20971c187("vfs: Convert debugfs to use the new mount API") Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220406 Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Charalampos Mitrodimas <charmitro@posteo.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/20250816-debugfs-mount-opts-v3-1-d271dad57b5b@posteo.net Signed-off-by: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
