And instead convert tmpfs to use the new generic ACL code, with two stub

This causes a small behaviour change in that we don't bother to set
ACLs on file creation if the mode bit can express the access permissions
fully, and thus behaving identical to local filesystems.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

Rename the current posix_acl_created to __posix_acl_create and add

Pull user namespaces work from Eric Biederman:
"The work to convert the kernel to use kuid_t and kgid_t has been
finished since 3.12 so it is time to remove the scaffolding that
allowed the work to progress incrementally.The first patch on this branch just removes the scaffolding, ensuring
we will always get compile errors if people accidentally try the
userspace and the kernel uid and gid types. The second patch an
overlooked and unused chunk of mips code that that fails to build
after the first patch.The code hasn't been in linux-next for long (as I was out of it and
could not sheppared the cold properly) but the patch has been around
for a long time just waiting for the day when I had finished the
uid/gid conversions. Putting the code in linux-next did find the
compile failure on mips so I took the time to get that fix reviewed
and included. Beyond that I am not too worried about errors because
all these two patches do is delete a modest amount of code"* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:

Removing UIDGID_STRICT_TYPE_CHECKS simplifies the code and always
generates a compile error if the uids and kuids or gids and kgids are
mixed by accident. Now that the appropriate conversions have been
placed throughout the kernel there is no longer a need for a mode where
we don't detect them as compile errors.Acked-by: Serge Hallyn

- In setxattr if we are setting a posix acl convert uids and gids from
the current user namespace into the initial user namespace, before
the xattrs are passed to the underlying filesystem.Untranslatable uids and gids are represented as -1 which
posix_acl_from_xattr will represent as INVALID_UID or INVALID_GID.
posix_acl_valid will fail if an acl from userspace has any
INVALID_UID or INVALID_GID values. In net this guarantees that
untranslatable posix acls will not be stored by filesystems.- In getxattr if we are reading a posix acl convert uids and gids from
the initial user namespace into the current user namespace.Uids and gids that can not be tranlsated into the current user namespace
will be represented as -1.- Replace e_id in struct posix_acl_entry with an anymouns union of
e_uid and e_gid. For the short term retain the e_id field
until all of the users are converted.- Don't set struct posix_acl.e_id in the cases where the acl type
does not use e_id. Greatly reducing the use of ACL_UNDEFINED_ID.- Rework the ordering checks in posix_acl_valid so that I use kuid_t
and kgid_t types throughout the code, and so that I don't need
arithmetic on uid and gid types.Cc: Theodore Tso

If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any
other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then
that header really should be including and not just
expecting it to be implicitly present.We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these
headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have
been causing compile failures/warnings.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

nfsacl_encode() allocates memory in certain cases. This of course
is not guaranteed to work.Since commit 9f06c719 "SUNRPC: New xdr_streams XDR encoder API", the
kernel's XDR encoders can't return a result indicating possibly a
failure, so a memory allocation failure in nfsacl_encode() has become
fatal (ie, the XDR code Oopses) in some cases.However, the allocated memory is a tiny fixed amount, on the order
of 40-50 bytes. We can easily use a stack-allocated buffer for
this, with only a wee bit of nose-holding.Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever

This simple implementation just checks for no ACLs on the inode, and
if so, then the rcu-walk may proceed, otherwise fail it.This could easily be extended to put acls under RCU and check them
under seqlock, if need be. But this implementation is enough to show
the rcu-walk aware permissions code for path lookups is working, and
will handle cases where there are no ACLs or ACLs in just the final
element.This patch implicity converts tmpfs to rcu-aware permission check.
Subsequent patches onvert ext*, xfs, and, btrfs. Each of these uses
acl/permission code in a different way, so convert them all to provide
templates and proof of concept.Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin

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!
