  • 431547b3c   sanitize xattr handler prototypes ... Browse Code »

    Add a flags argument to struct xattr_handler and pass it to all xattr
    handler methods. This allows using the same methods for multiple
    handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action
    for the access and default ACLs, just using a different underlying
    attribute. With a little more groundwork it'll also allow sharing the
    methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and
    jffs2 like it's already done for xfs in this patch.

    Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow
    using the handlers mechnism for filesystems that require it later,
    e.g. cifs.

  • c00c310ea   [JFFS2] Tidy up licensing/copyright boilerplate. ... Browse Code »

    In particular, remove the bit in the LICENCE file about contacting
    Red Hat for alternative arrangements. Their errant IS department broke
    that arrangement a long time ago -- the policy of collecting copyright
    assignments from contributors came to an end when the plug was pulled on
    the servers hosting the project, without notice or reason.

    We do still dual-license it for use with eCos, with the GPL+exception
    licence approved by the FSF as being GPL-compatible. It's just that nobody
    has the right to license it differently.

  • aa98d7cf5   [JFFS2][XATTR] XATTR support on JFFS2 (version. 5) ... Browse Code »

    This attached patches provide xattr support including POSIX-ACL and
    SELinux support on JFFS2 (version.5).

    There are some significant differences from previous version posted
    at last December.
    The biggest change is addition of EBS(Erase Block Summary) support.
    Currently, both kernel and usermode utility (sumtool) can recognize
    xattr nodes which have JFFS2_NODETYPE_XATTR/_XREF nodetype.

    In addition, some bugs are fixed.
    - A potential race condition was fixed.
    - Unexpected fail when updating a xattr by same name/value pair was fixed.
    - A bug when removing xattr name/value pair was fixed.

    The fundamental structures (such as using two new nodetypes and exclusion
    mechanism by rwsem) are unchanged. But most of implementation were reviewed
    and updated if necessary.
    Espacially, we had to change several internal implementations related to
    load_xattr_datum() to avoid a potential race condition.
