From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx> On closer examination of the lockfile code, there is still a fatal flaw in the locking logic. This is born out by the fact that you can run: # truncate -s 300m /tmp/a # mkfs.ext2 /tmp/a # fuse2fs -o kernel /tmp/a /mnt -o lockfile=/tmp/fuselock # fuse2fs -o kernel /tmp/a /mnt -o lockfile=/tmp/fuselock and the second mount attempt succeeds where it really shouldn't. This is due to the use of fopen(..., "w"), because "w" means "truncate or create". It does /not/ imply O_CREAT | O_EXCL, which fails if the file already exists. Theoretically that could have been done with mode string "wx", but that's a glibc extension. Fix this by calling open() directly with the O_ modes that we want.
