* RCUify freeing acls, let check_acl() go ahead in RCU mode if acl is cachedAl Viro2011-08-031-9/+9

* get rid of boilerplate switches in posix_acl.hAl Viro2011-08-031-42/+20
| | | | | | | | | the only potentially subtle thing here: get_cached_acl() is never called with the second argument other than ACL_TYPE_{ACCESS,DEFAULT}. IOW, that return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) in there might as well be BUG(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* switch posix_acl_chmod() to umode_tAl Viro2011-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | again, that's what all callers pass to it Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* switch posix_acl_from_mode() to umode_tAl Viro2011-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | ... seeing that this is what all callers pass to it anyway. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* switch posix_acl_equiv_mode() to umode_t *Al Viro2011-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | ... so that &inode->i_mode could be passed to it Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* switch posix_acl_create() to umode_t *Al Viro2011-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | so we can pass &inode->i_mode to it Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* bury posix_acl_..._masq() variantsAl Viro2011-07-251-3/+0
| | | | | | | made static; no callers left outside of posix_acl.c. posix_acl_clone() also has lost all external callers and became static... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* kill boilerplates around posix_acl_create_masq()Al Viro2011-07-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | new helper: posix_acl_create(&acl, gfp, mode_p). Replaces acl with modified clone, on failure releases acl and replaces with NULL. Returns 0 or -ve on error. All callers of posix_acl_create_masq() switched. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* kill boilerplate around posix_acl_chmod_masq()Al Viro2011-07-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | new helper: posix_acl_chmod(&acl, gfp, mode). Replaces acl with modified clone or with NULL if that has failed; returns 0 or -ve on error. All callers of posix_acl_chmod_masq() switched to that - they'd been doing exactly the same thing. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* NFS: Prevent memory allocation failure in nfsacl_encode()Chuck Lever2011-01-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | nfsacl_encode() allocates memory in certain cases. This of course is not guaranteed to work. Since commit 9f06c719 "SUNRPC: New xdr_streams XDR encoder API", the kernel's XDR encoders can't return a result indicating possibly a failure, so a memory allocation failure in nfsacl_encode() has become fatal (ie, the XDR code Oopses) in some cases. However, the allocated memory is a tiny fixed amount, on the order of 40-50 bytes. We can easily use a stack-allocated buffer for this, with only a wee bit of nose-holding.

* fs: provide simple rcu-walk generic_check_acl implementationNick Piggin2011-01-071-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This simple implementation just checks for no ACLs on the inode, and if so, then the rcu-walk may proceed, otherwise fail it. This could easily be extended to put acls under RCU and check them under seqlock, if need be. But this implementation is enough to show the rcu-walk aware permissions code for path lookups is working, and will handle cases where there are no ACLs or ACLs in just the final element. This patch implicity converts tmpfs to rcu-aware permission check. Subsequent patches onvert ext*, xfs, and, btrfs. Each of these uses acl/permission code in a different way, so convert them all to provide templates and proof of concept. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
* VFS: Add forget_all_cached_acls()Steven Whitehouse2009-12-031-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | This is required for cluster filesystems which want to use cached ACLs so that they can invalidate the cache when required. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Alexander Viro <aviro@redhat.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>

* helpers for acl caching + switch to thoseAl Viro2009-06-241-0/+64
| | | | | | | | | helpers: get_cached_acl(inode, type), set_cached_acl(inode, type, acl), forget_cached_acl(inode, type). ubifs/xattr.c needed includes reordered, the rest is a plain switchover. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* [PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1Al Viro2005-10-081-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | - added typedef unsigned int __nocast gfp_t; - replaced __nocast uses for gfp flags with gfp_t - it gives exactly the same warnings as far as sparse is concerned, doesn't change generated code (from gcc point of view we replaced unsigned int with typedef) and documents what's going on far better.

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!
