2006-09-29[PATCH] vfs: define new lookup flag for chdirMiklos Szeredi
In the "operation does permission checking" model used by fuse, chdir permission is not checked, since there's no chdir method. For this case set a lookup flag, which will be passed to ->permission(), so fuse can distinguish it from permission checks for other operations.

2006-09-29[PATCH] fuse: use dentry in statfsMiklos Szeredi
Some filesystems may want to report different values depending on the path within the filesystem, i.e. one mount is actually several filesystems. This can be the case for a network filesystem exported by an unprivileged server (e.g. sshfs). This is now possible, thanks to David Howells "VFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentry" patch. This change is backward compatible, so no need to change interface version.

2006-09-29[PATCH] Require mmap handler for a.out executablesEugene Teo
Files supported by fs/proc/base.c, i.e. /proc/<pid>/*, are not capable of meeting the validity checks in ELF load_elf_*() handling because they have no mmap handler which is required by ELF. In order to stop a.out executables being used as part of an exploit attack against /proc-related vulnerabilities, we make a.out executables depend on ->mmap() existing.

2006-09-29[PATCH] blockdev.c: check driver layer errorsAndrew Morton
Check driver layer errors. Fix from: "Jun'ichi Nomura" <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> In blockdevc-check-errors.patch, add_bd_holder() is modified to return error values when some of its operation failed. Among them, it returns -EEXIST when a given bd_holder object already exists in the list. However, in this case, the function completed its work successfully and need no action by its caller other than freeing unused bd_holder object. So I think it's better to return success after freeing by itself. Otherwise, bd_claim-ing with same claim pointer will fail. Typically, lvresize will fails with following message: device-mapper: reload ioctl failed: Invalid argument and you'll see messages like below in kernel log: device-mapper: table: 254:13: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table Similarly, it should not add bd_holder to the list if either one of symlinking fails. I don't have a test case for this to happen but it should cause dereference of freed pointer. If a matching bd_holder is found in bd_holder_list, add_bd_holder() completes its job by just incrementing the reference count. In this case, it should be considered as success but it used to return 'fail' to let the caller free temporary bd_holder. Fixed it to return success and free given object by itself. Also, if either one of symlinking fails, the bd_holder should not be added to the list so that it can be discarded later. Otherwise, the caller will free bd_holder which is in the list.

2006-09-28[GFS2] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structureTheodore Ts'o
This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function. Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect) values for i_blksize.

2006-09-28[GFS2] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private (gfs)Theodore Ts'o
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode (i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat in the VFS inode structure). This patch: The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union, which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where the union will actually be used.

2006-09-28[XFS] Really fix use after free in xfs_iunpin.David Chinner
The previous attempts to fix the linux inode use-after-free in xfs_iunpin simply made the problem harder to hit. We actually need complete exclusion between xfs_reclaim and xfs_iunpin, as well as ensuring that the i_flags are consistent during both of these functions. Introduce a new spinlock for exclusion and the i_flags, and fix up xfs_iunpin to use igrab before marking the inode dirty.
