  • Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
    makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

    By default all files without license information are under the default
    license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

    Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
    SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
    shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

    This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
    Philippe Ombredanne.

    How this work was done:

    Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
    the use cases:
    - file had no licensing information it it.
    - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
    - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

    Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
    where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
    had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

    The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
    a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
    output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
    tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
    base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

    The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
    assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
    results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
    to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
    immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

    Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
    - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
    - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
    lines of source
    - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

  • This patch converts most of the in-kernel filesystems that do writeback
    out of the pagecache to report errors using the errseq_t-based
    infrastructure that was recently added. This allows them to report
    errors once for each open file description.

    Most filesystems have a fairly straightforward fsync operation. They
    call filemap_write_and_wait_range to write back all of the data and
    wait on it, and then (sometimes) sync out the metadata.

    For those filesystems this is a straightforward conversion from calling
    filemap_write_and_wait_range in their fsync operation to calling
    file_write_and_wait_range.

  • CURRENT_TIME_SEC is not y2038 safe. current_time() will
    be transitioned to use 64 bit time along with vfs in a
    separate patch.
    There is no plan to transistion CURRENT_TIME_SEC to use
    y2038 safe time interfaces.

    current_time() will also be extended to use superblock
    range checking parameters when range checking is introduced.

    This works because alloc_super() fills in the the s_time_gran
    in super block to NSEC_PER_SEC.

  • We need to protect the list of hfsplus_readdir_data against parallel
    insertions (in readdir) and removals (in release). Add a spinlock
    for that. Note that it has nothing to do with protection of
    hfsplus_readdir_data->key - we have an exclusion between hfsplus_readdir()
    and hfsplus_delete_cat() on directory lock and between several
    hfsplus_readdir() for the same struct file on ->f_pos_lock. The spinlock
    is strictly for list changes.

  • PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
    ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
    cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

    This promise never materialized. And unlikely will.

    We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
    PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether
    PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
    especially on the border between fs and mm.

    Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
    breakage to be doable.

    Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are
    not.

    The changes are pretty straight-forward:

    - << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ;

    - >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ;

    - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

    - page_cache_get() -> get_page();

    - page_cache_release() -> put_page();

    This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
    script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
    I've called spatch for them manually.

    The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
    PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

    There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll
    fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also
    will be addressed with the separate patch.

  • Fix a bug which is reproduced as follows. Create a file:

    echo abc > test_file

    Try to expand the file beyond available space:

    truncate --size= test_file

    Since HFS+ does not support file size > allocated size, truncate should
    fail. However, it ends successfully. The driver returns success despite
    having been unable to allocate the requested space for the file. Also
    filesystem check finds an error:

    Checking catalog file.
    Incorrect size for file test_file
    (It should be 469094400 instead of 1000000000)

    Add a piece of code analogous to code in the fat driver. Now a proper
    error is returned and filesystem remains consistent.

  • Adds support for HFSX 'HasFolderCount' flag and a corresponding
    'folderCount' field in folder records. (For reference see
    HFS_FOLDERCOUNT and kHFSHasFolderCountBit/kHFSHasFolderCountMask in
    Apple's source code.)

    Ignoring subfolder count leads to fs errors found by Mac:

    ...
    Checking catalog hierarchy.
    HasFolderCount flag needs to be set (id = 105)
    (It should be 0x10 instead of 0)
    Incorrect folder count in a directory (id = 2)
    (It should be 7 instead of 6)
    ...

    Steps to reproduce:
    Format with "newfs_hfs -s /dev/diskXXX".
    Mount in Linux.
    Create a new directory in root.
    Unmount.
    Run "fsck_hfs /dev/diskXXX".

    The patch handles directory creation, deletion, and rename.

  • HFS+ resource fork lookup breaks opendir() library function. Since
    opendir first calls open() with O_DIRECTORY flag set. O_DIRECTORY means
    "refuse to open if not a directory". The open system call in the kernel
    does a check for inode->i_op->lookup and returns -ENOTDIR. So if
    hfsplus_file_lookup is set it allows opendir() for plain files.

    Also resource fork lookup in HFS+ does not work. Since it is never
    invoked after VFS permission checking. It will always return with
    -EACCES.

    When we call opendir() on a file, it does not return NULL. opendir()
    library call is based on open with O_DIRECTORY flag passed and then
    layered on top of getdents() system call. O_DIRECTORY means "refuse to
    open if not a directory".

    The open() system call in the kernel does a check for: do_sys_open()
    -->..--> can_lookup() i.e it only checks inode->i_op->lookup and returns
    ENOTDIR if this function pointer is not set.

    In OSX, we can open "file/rsrc" to get the resource fork of "file". This
    behavior is emulated inside hfsplus on Linux, which means that to some
    degree every file acts like a directory. That is the reason lookup()
    inode operations is supported for files, and it is possible to do a lookup
    on this specific name. As a result of this open succeeds without
    returning ENOTDIR for HFS+

    Please see the LKML discussion thread on this issue:
    http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=122823343730412&w=2

    I tried to test file/rsrc lookup in HFS+ driver and the feature does not
    work. From OSX:

    $ touch test
    $ echo "1234" > test/..namedfork/rsrc
    $ ls -l test..namedfork/rsrc
    --rw-r--r-- 1 tuxera staff 5 10 dec 12:59 test/..namedfork/rsrc

    [sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ id
    uid=1000(sougata) gid=1000(sougata) groups=1000(sougata),5(tty),18(dialout),1001(vboxusers)

    [sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ mount
    /dev/sdb1 on /mnt/tmp type hfsplus (rw,relatime,umask=0,uid=1000,gid=1000,nls=utf8)

    [sougata@ultrabook tmp]$ ls -l test/rsrc
    ls: cannot access test/rsrc: Permission denied

    According to this LKML thread it is expected behavior.

    http://marc.info/?t=121139033800008&r=1&w=4

    I guess now that permission checking happens in vfs generic_permission() ?
    So it turns out that even though the lookup() inode_operation exists for
    HFS+ files. It cannot really get invoked ?. So if we can disable this
    feature to make opendir() work for HFS+.
