  • 4e34e719e   fs: take the ACL checks to common code ... Browse Code »

    Replace the ->check_acl method with a ->get_acl method that simply reads an
    ACL from disk after having a cache miss. This means we can replace the ACL
    checking boilerplate code with a single implementation in namei.c.

  • 826cae2f2   kill boilerplates around posix_acl_create_masq() ... Browse Code »

    new helper: posix_acl_create(&acl, gfp, mode_p). Replaces acl with
    modified clone, on failure releases acl and replaces with NULL.
    Returns 0 or -ve on error. All callers of posix_acl_create_masq()
    switched.

    new helper: posix_acl_chmod(&acl, gfp, mode). Replaces acl with modified
    clone or with NULL if that has failed; returns 0 or -ve on error. All
    callers of posix_acl_chmod_masq() switched to that - they'd been doing
    exactly the same thing.

  • e77819e57   vfs: move ACL cache lookup into generic code ... Browse Code »

    This moves logic for checking the cached ACL values from low-level
    filesystems into generic code. The end result is a streamlined ACL
    check that doesn't need to load the inode->i_op->check_acl pointer at
    all for the common cached case.

    The filesystems also don't need to check for a non-blocking RCU walk
    case in their acl_check() functions, because that is all handled at a
    VFS layer.

  • 5a0e3ad6a   include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implic… ... Browse Code »

    …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

  • 759bfee65   dquot: move dquot transfer responsibility into the filesystem ... Browse Code »

    Currently notify_change calls vfs_dq_transfer directly. This means
    we tie the quota code into the VFS. Get rid of that and make the
    filesystem responsible for the transfer. Most filesystems already
    do this, only ufs and udf need the code added, and for jfs it needs to
    be enabled unconditionally instead of only when ACLs are enabled.

  • 4a19fb11a   jfs: Fix early release of acl in jfs_get_acl ... Browse Code »

    BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/396780

    Commit 073aaa1b142461d91f83da66db1184d7c1b1edea "helpers for acl
    caching + switch to those" introduced new helper functions for
    acl handling but seems to have introduced a regression for jfs as
    the acl is released before returning it to the caller, instead of
    leaving this for the caller to do.
    This causes the acl object to be used after freeing it, leading
    to kernel panics in completely different places.

    Thanks to Christophe Dumez for reporting and bisecting into this.

  • e6305c43e   [PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototype ... Browse Code »

    * kill nameidata * argument; map the 3 bits in ->flags anybody cares
    about to new MAY_... ones and pass with the mask.
    * kill redundant gfs2_iop_permission()
    * sanitize ecryptfs_permission()
    * fix remaining places where ->permission() instances might barf on new
    MAY_... found in mask.

    The obvious next target in that direction is permission(9)

  • 69eb66d7d   JFS: add uid, gid, and umask mount options ... Browse Code »

    OS/2 doesn't initialize the uid, gid, or unix-style permission bits. The
    uid, gid, & umask mount options perform pretty much like those for the fat
    file system, overriding what is stored on disk. This is useful for users
    sharing the file system with OS/2.

    I implemented a little feature so that if you mask the execute bit, it
    will be re-enabled on directories when the appropriate read bit is unmasked.
    I didn't want to implement an fmask & dmask option.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
