dentry_open in ovl_security_fileattr fails for any file larger than 2GB if open method of the underlying filesystem calls generic_file_open (e.g. fusefs).
The issue can be reproduce using the following script: (passthrough_ll is an example app from libfuse).
$ D=/opt/test/mnt $ mkdir -p ${D}/{source,base,top/uppr,top/work,ovlfs} $ dd if=/dev/zero of=${D}/source/zero.bin bs=1G count=2 $ passthrough_ll -o source=${D}/source ${D}/base $ mount -t overlay overlay \ -olowerdir=${D}/base,upperdir=${D}/top/uppr,workdir=${D}/top/work \ ${D}/ovlfs $ chmod 0777 ${D}/mnt/ovlfs/zero.bin
Running this script results in "Value too large for defined data type" error message from chmod.
