2012-09-18userns: Convert vfs posix_acl support to use kuids and kgidsEric W. Biederman
- In setxattr if we are setting a posix acl convert uids and gids from the current user namespace into the initial user namespace, before the xattrs are passed to the underlying filesystem. Untranslatable uids and gids are represented as -1 which posix_acl_from_xattr will represent as INVALID_UID or INVALID_GID. posix_acl_valid will fail if an acl from userspace has any INVALID_UID or INVALID_GID values. In net this guarantees that untranslatable posix acls will not be stored by filesystems. - In getxattr if we are reading a posix acl convert uids and gids from the initial user namespace into the current user namespace. Uids and gids that can not be tranlsated into the current user namespace will be represented as -1. - Replace e_id in struct posix_acl_entry with an anymouns union of e_uid and e_gid. For the short term retain the e_id field until all of the users are converted. - Don't set struct posix_acl.e_id in the cases where the acl type does not use e_id. Greatly reducing the use of ACL_UNDEFINED_ID. - Rework the ordering checks in posix_acl_valid so that I use kuid_t and kgid_t types throughout the code, and so that I don't need arithmetic on uid and gid types.

2012-03-04BUG: headers with BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.hPaul Gortmaker
If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then that header really should be including <linux/bug.h> and not just expecting it to be implicitly present. We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have been causing compile failures/warnings.

2011-08-03RCUify freeing acls, let check_acl() go ahead in RCU mode if acl is cachedAl Viro

2011-08-03get rid of boilerplate switches in posix_acl.hAl Viro
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>
2011-08-01switch posix_acl_chmod() to umode_tAl Viro
again, that's what all callers pass to it Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-08-01switch posix_acl_from_mode() to umode_tAl Viro
... seeing that this is what all callers pass to it anyway. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2011-08-01switch posix_acl_create() to umode_t *Al Viro

2011-07-25bury posix_acl_..._masq() variantsAl Viro
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>
2011-07-25kill boilerplates around posix_acl_create_masq()Al Viro
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>
2011-07-25kill boilerplate around posix_acl_chmod_masq()Al Viro
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>
2011-01-25NFS: Prevent memory allocation failure in nfsacl_encode()Chuck Lever
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.

2011-01-07fs: provide simple rcu-walk generic_check_acl implementationNick Piggin
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>
2009-12-03VFS: Add forget_all_cached_acls()Steven Whitehouse
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>

2005-10-08[PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1Al Viro
- 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!
