  • ca01d6dd2   pstore: new filesystem interface to platform persistent storage ... Browse Code »

    Some platforms have a small amount of non-volatile storage that
    can be used to store information useful to diagnose the cause of
    a system crash. This is the generic part of a file system interface
    that presents information from the crash as a series of files in
    /dev/pstore. Once the information has been seen, the underlying
    storage is freed by deleting the files.

    Use V9FS_MAGIC as the file system type while filling kernel statfs
    strucutre instead of using host file system magic number. Also move
    the definition of V9FS_MAGIC from v9fs.h to standard magic.h file.

  • 75834fc3b   SELinux: move SELINUX_MAGIC into magic.h ... Browse Code »

    The selinuxfs superblock magic is used inside the IMA code, but is being
    defined in two places and could someday get out of sync. This patch moves the
    declaration into magic.h so it is only done once.

  • 1107ba885   xen: add xenfs to allow usermode <-> Xen interaction ... Browse Code »

    The xenfs filesystem exports various interfaces to usermode. Initially
    this exports a file to allow usermode to interact with xenbus/xenstore.

    Traditionally this appeared in /proc/xen. Rather than extending procfs,
    this patch adds a backward-compat mountpoint on /proc/xen, and provides
    a xenfs filesystem which can be mounted there.

  • 925629278   integrity: special fs magic ... Browse Code »

    Discussion on the mailing list questioned the use of these
    magic values in userspace, concluding these values are already
    exported to userspace via statfs and their correct/incorrect
    usage is left up to the userspace application.

    - Move special fs magic number definitions to magic.h
    - Add magic.h include

  • 7c9f8861e   stackprotector: use canary at end of stack to indicate overruns at oops time ... Browse Code »

    (Updated with a common max-stack-used checker that knows about
    the canary, as suggested by Joe Perches)

    Use a canary at the end of the stack to clearly indicate
    at oops time whether the stack has ever overflowed.

    This is a very simple implementation with a couple of
    drawbacks:

    1) a thread may legitimately use exactly up to the last
    word on the stack

    -- but the chances of doing this and then oopsing later seem slim

    2) it's possible that the stack usage isn't dense enough
    that the canary location could get skipped over

    -- but the worst that happens is that we don't flag the overrun
    -- though this happens fairly often in my testing :(

    With the code in place, an intentionally-bloated stack oops might
    do:

    BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff8103f84cc680
    IP: [] update_curr+0x9a/0xa8
    PGD 8063 PUD 0
    Thread overran stack or stack corrupted
    Oops: 0000 [1] SMP
    CPU 0
    ...

    ... unless the stack overrun is so bad that it corrupts some other
    thread.

  • ddbcc7e8e   Task Control Groups: basic task cgroup framework ... Browse Code »

    Generic Process Control Groups
    --------------------------

    There have recently been various proposals floating around for
    resource management/accounting and other task grouping subsystems in
    the kernel, including ResGroups, User BeanCounters, NSProxy
    cgroups, and others. These all need the basic abstraction of being
    able to group together multiple processes in an aggregate, in order to
    track/limit the resources permitted to those processes, or control
    other behaviour of the processes, and all implement this grouping in
    different ways.

    This patchset provides a framework for tracking and grouping processes
    into arbitrary "cgroups" and assigning arbitrary state to those
    groupings, in order to control the behaviour of the cgroup as an
    aggregate.

    The intention is that the various resource management and
    virtualization/cgroup efforts can also become task cgroup
    clients, with the result that:

    - the userspace APIs are (somewhat) normalised

    - it's easier to test e.g. the ResGroups CPU controller in
    conjunction with the BeanCounters memory controller, or use either of
    them as the resource-control portion of a virtual server system.

    - the additional kernel footprint of any of the competing resource
    management systems is substantially reduced, since it doesn't need
    to provide process grouping/containment, hence improving their
    chances of getting into the kernel

    This patch:

    Add the main task cgroups framework - the cgroup filesystem, and the
    basic structures for tracking membership and associating subsystem state
    objects to tasks.

  • 5dc8bf813   signal/timer/event fds: anonymous inode source ... Browse Code »

    This patch add an anonymous inode source, to be used for files that need
    and inode only in order to create a file*. We do not care of having an
    inode for each file, and we do not even care of having different names in
    the associated dentries (dentry names will be same for classes of file*).
    This allow code reuse, and will be used by epoll, signalfd and timerfd
    (and whatever else there'll be).

  • 939b00df0   [PATCH] Minix V3 support ... Browse Code »

    This morning I needed to read a Minix V3 filesystem, but unfortunately my
    2.6.19 did not support that, and neither did the downloaded 2.6.20rc4.

    Fortunately, google told me that Daniel Aragones had already done the work,
    patch found at http://www.terra.es/personal2/danarag/

    Unfortunaly, looking at the patch was painful to my eyes, so I polished it
    a bit before applying. The resulting kernel boots, and reads the
    filesystem it needed to read.

    Jeffrey Altman, one of the gatekeepers of OpenAFS (the open source project
    which inherited the Transarc/IBM AFS codebase) has requested that the magic
    number 0x5346414F (little endian 'OAFS') be allocated for the f_type field
    of the fsinfo structure on Linux:

    https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2006-December/024829.html

    Add it to include/linux/magic.h, mostly as a way of publishing this number
    and ensuring that no other filesystem accidentally uses it.
