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

reiserfs_xattr_[sg]et() will fail with -EOPNOTSUPP for V1 inodes anyway,
and all reiserfs instances of ->[sg]et() call it and so does ->set_acl().Checks for name length in the instances had been bogus; they should've
been "bugger off if it's _exactly_ the prefix" (as generic would
do on its own) and not "bugger off if it's shorter than the prefix" -
that can't happen.xattr_full_name() is needed to adjust for the fact that generic instances
will skip the prefix in the name passed to ->[gs]et(); reiserfs homegrown
analogues didn't.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Change the list operation to only return whether or not an attribute
should be listed. Copying the attribute names into the buffer is moved
to the callers.Since the result only depends on the dentry and not on the attribute
name, we do not pass the attribute name to list operations.Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher

The xattr_handler operations are currently all passed a file system
specific flags value which the operations can use to disambiguate between
different handlers; some file systems use that to distinguish the xattr
namespace, for example. In some oprations, it would be useful to also have
access to the handler prefix. To allow that, pass a pointer to the handler
to operations instead of the flags value alone.Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher

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.[with GFS2 bits updated by Steven Whitehouse ]

Christoph Hellwig had asked me quite some time ago to port the reiserfs
xattrs to the generic xattr interface.This patch replaces the reiserfs-specific xattr handling code with the
generic struct xattr_handler.However, since reiserfs doesn't split the prefix and name when accessing
xattrs, it can't leverage generic_{set,get,list,remove}xattr without
needlessly reconstructing the name on the back end.Update 7/26/07: Added missing dput() to deletion path.
Update 8/30/07: Added missing mark_inode_dirty when i_mode is used to
represent an ACL and no previous ACL existed.Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney

There are a number of helper functions for marking a reiserfs inode
private that were leftover from reiserfs did its own thing wrt to
private inodes. S_PRIVATE has been in the kernel for some time, so this
patch removes the helpers and uses IS_PRIVATE instead.Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney

This was a pure indentation change, using:
scripts/Lindent fs/reiserfs/*.c include/linux/reiserfs_*.h
to make reiserfs match the regular Linux indentation style. As Jeff
Mahoney writes:The ReiserFS code is a mix of a number of different coding styles, sometimes
different even from line-to-line. Since the code has been relatively stable
for quite some time and there are few outstanding patches to be applied, it
is time to reformat the code to conform to the Linux style standard outlined
in Documentation/CodingStyle.This patch contains the result of running scripts/Lindent against
fs/reiserfs/*.c and include/linux/reiserfs_*.h. There are places where the
code can be made to look better, but I'd rather keep those patches separate
so that there isn't a subtle by-hand hand accident in the middle of a huge
patch. To be clear: This patch is reformatting *only*.A number of patches may follow that continue to make the code more consistent
with the Linux coding style.Hans wasn't particularly enthusiastic about these patches, but said he
wouldn't really oppose them either.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

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!
