Description Andreas Gruenbacher 2015-08-18 12:12:05 UTC
ubifs sets sb->s_xattr to ubifs_xattr_handlers which contains a handler for "security.*" xattrs. The s_xattr handlers are never used because ubifs uses its own ubifs_{get,set,list,remove}xattr inode operations instead of generic_{get,set,list,remove}xattr inode operations though.
