The code needs to be from_kgid(make_kgid(...)...) not
from_kuid(make_kgid(...)...). Doh!Reported-by: Jan Kara

- Pass the user namespace the uid and gid values in the xattr are stored
in into posix_acl_from_xattr.- Pass the user namespace kuid and kgid values should be converted into
when storing uid and gid values in an xattr in posix_acl_to_xattr.- Modify all callers of posix_acl_from_xattr and posix_acl_to_xattr to
pass in &init_user_ns.In the short term this change is not strictly needed but it makes the
code clearer. In the longer term this change is necessary to be able to
mount filesystems outside of the initial user namespace that natively
store posix acls in the linux xattr format.Cc: Theodore Tso

- 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

For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map
them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even
using those, then just delete the include. Fix up any implicit
include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along
the way.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

…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 allmodconfig8. 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.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

GFS2 needs to call this from under a glock, so we need GFP_NOFS
and I suspect that other filesystems might require this too.Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).Signed-off-by: Tim Schmielau

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!
