During the update process in sa_modify_attrs(), the sizes of existing
variably-sized SA entries are obtained from sa_lengths[]. The case where
a variably-sized SA was being replaced neglected to increment the index
into sa_lengths[], so subsequent variable-length SAs would be rewritten
with the wrong length. This patch adds the missing increment operation
so all variably-sized SA entries are stored with their correct lengths.
Previously, a size-changing update of a variably-sized SA that occurred
when there were other variably-sized SAs in the bonus buffer would cause
the subsequent SAs to be corrupted. The most common case in which this
would occur is when a mode change caused the ZPL_DACL_ACES entry to
change size when a ZPL_DXATTR (SA xattr) entry already existed.
The following sequence would have caused a failure when xattr=sa was in
force and would corrupt the bonus buffer. This is a long standing issue
but it was exposed under Linux and FreeBSD where the use of multiple
variable length SAs is common.
open(filename, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT, 0600);
...
lsetxattr(filename, ...); /* create xattr SA */
chmod(filename, 0650); /* enlarges the ACL */
