  • 831441862   Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default ... Browse Code »

    Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
    threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
    approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
    set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
    care for the freezing of tasks at all.

    It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
    be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
    freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
    done in this patch.

    The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
    have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
    function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
    unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
    threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
    change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
    describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

  • 50c2f7538   [CIFS] whitespace/formatting fixes ... Browse Code »

    This should be the last big batch of whitespace/formatting fixes.
    checkpatch warnings for the cifs directory are down about 90% and
    many of the remaining ones are harder to remove or make the code
    harder to read.

  • 28356a167   [CIFS] Fix oops on failed cifs mount (in kthread_stop) ... Browse Code »

    If the cifs demultiplex thread wakes up and exits
    (zeroing server->tsk) before kthread_stop is called, the
    cifs_mount code could pass a null pointer to kthread_stop

    Thanks to akpm, Dave Young and Shaggy for suggesting
    earlier versions of this patch.

  • 8426c39c1   [CIFS] Make sec=none force an anonymous mount ... Browse Code »

    We had a customer report that attempting to make CIFS mount with a null
    username (i.e. doing an anonymous mount) doesn't work. Looking through the
    code, it looks like CIFS expects a NULL username from userspace in order
    to trigger an anonymous mount. The mount.cifs code doesn't seem to ever
    pass a null username to the kernel, however.

    It looks also like the kernel can take a sec=none option, but it only seems
    to look at it if the username is already NULL. This seems redundant and
    effectively makes sec=none useless.

    The following patch makes sec=none force an anonymous mount.

  • 4523cc304   [CIFS] UID/GID override on CIFS mounts to Samba ... Browse Code »

    When CIFS Unix Extensions are negotiated we get the Unix uid and gid
    owners of the file from the server (on the Unix Query Path Info
    levels), but if the server's uids don't match the client uid's users
    were having to disable the Unix Extensions (which turned off features
    they still wanted). The changeset patch allows users to override uid
    and/or gid for file/directory owner with a default uid and/or gid
    specified at mount (as is often done when mounting from Linux cifs
    client to Windows server). This changeset also displays the uid
    and gid used by default in /proc/mounts (if applicable).

    Also cleans up code by adding some of the missing spaces after
    "if" keywords per-kernel style guidelines (as suggested by Randy Dunlap
    when he reviewed the patch).

  • 5858ae44e   [CIFS] Add IPv6 support ... Browse Code »

    IPv6 support was started a few years ago in the cifs client, but lacked a
    kernel helper function for parsing the ascii form of the ipv6 address. Now
    that that is added (and now IPv6 is the default that some OS use now) it
    was fairly easy to finish the cifs ipv6 support. This requires that
    CIFS_EXPERIMENTAL be enabled and (at least until the mount.cifs module is
    modified to use a new ipv6 friendly call instead of gethostbyname) and the
    ipv6 address be passed on the mount as "ip=" mount option.

    Thanks

  • e9ff3990f   [PATCH] namespaces: utsname: switch to using uts namespaces ... Browse Code »

    Replace references to system_utsname to the per-process uts namespace
    where appropriate. This includes things like uname.

    Changes: Per Eric Biederman's comments, use the per-process uts namespace
    for ELF_PLATFORM, sunrpc, and parts of net/ipv4/ipconfig.c
