Hello all, I am facing a problem when trying to boot linux 2.6.37 on a new architecture. At the end of the boot, it tries to launch /init by executing a sys_execve() Here is the what it does: sys_execve() |-> do_execve() |-> prepare_binprm() |->security_bprm_set_creds() |->cap_bprm_set_creds() |->get_file_caps() |->get_vfs_caps_from_disk() In the get_vfs_caps_from_disk(), these is a verification to know if inode->i_op->getxattr has been initialized. In my case, it returns and error value, because this field is not initialized. So I am wondering by who and where this field is initialized? And what is the aim of getxattr? Thanks in advance!
