2009-03-31New helper - current_umask()Al Viro
current->fs->umask is what most of fs_struct users are doing. Put that into a helper function. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2009-03-30reiserfs: journaled xattrsJeff Mahoney
Deadlocks are possible in the xattr code between the journal lock and the xattr sems. This patch implements journalling for xattr operations. The benefit is twofold: * It gets rid of the deadlock possibility by always ensuring that xattr write operations are initiated inside a transaction. * It corrects the problem where xattr backing files aren't considered any differently than normal files, despite the fact they are metadata. I discussed the added journal load with Chris Mason, and we decided that since xattrs (versus other journal activity) is fairly rare, the introduction of larger transactions to support journaled xattrs wouldn't be too big a deal.

2009-03-30reiserfs: use generic xattr handlersJeff Mahoney
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.

2009-03-30reiserfs: make per-inode xattr locking more fine grainedJeff Mahoney
The per-inode locking can be made more fine-grained to surround just the interaction with the filesystem itself. This really only applies to protecting reads during a write, since concurrent writes are barred with inode->i_mutex at the vfs level.

2009-03-30reiserfs: eliminate per-super xattr lockJeff Mahoney
With the switch to using inode->i_mutex locking during lookups/creation in the xattr root, the per-super xattr lock is no longer needed. This patch removes it. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2009-03-30reiserfs: remove IS_PRIVATE helpersJeff 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.

2007-07-17Introduce is_owner_or_cap() to wrap CAP_FOWNER use with fsuid checkSatyam Sharma
Introduce is_owner_or_cap() macro in fs.h, and convert over relevant users to it. This is done because we want to avoid bugs in the future where we check for only effective fsuid of the current task against a file's owning uid, without simultaneously checking for CAP_FOWNER as well, thus violating its semantics. [ XFS uses special macros and structures, and in general looked ... untouchable, so we leave it alone -- but it has been looked over. ] The (current->fsuid != inode->i_uid) check in generic_permission() and exec_permission_lite() is left alone, because those operations are covered by CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE and CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH. Similarly operations falling under the purview of CAP_CHOWN and CAP_LEASE are also left alone.

2006-12-13[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() callsRobert P. J. Day
Run this: #!/bin/sh for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do echo "De-casting $f..." perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f done And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers to non-pointers. And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

2006-04-22[PATCH] Fix reiserfs deadlockJan Kara
reiserfs_cache_default_acl() should return whether we successfully found the acl or not. We have to return correct value even if reiserfs_get_acl() returns error code and not just 0. Otherwise callers such as reiserfs_mkdir() can unnecessarily lock the xattrs and later functions such as reiserfs_new_inode() fail to notice that we have already taken the lock and try to take it again with obvious consequences.

2006-03-25[PATCH] reiserfs/xattr_acl.c:reiserfs_get_acl(): make size an intAdrian Bunk
The Coverity checker wasn't happy seeing a size_t compared with -ENODATA and -ENOSYS. Since the only place where size is set is through the result of reiserfs_xattr_get() which is an int, we could simply make size an int.

2005-07-12reiserfs: run scripts/Lindent on reiserfs codeLinus Torvalds
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 <jeffm@suse.com> 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 <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus 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!
