| * [PATCH] inotify: add two inotify_add_watch flagsJohn McCutchan2005-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The below patch lets userspace have more control over the inodes that inotify will watch. It introduces two new flags. IN_ONLYDIR -- only watch the inode if it is a directory. This is needed to avoid the race that can occur when we want to be sure that we are watching a directory. IN_DONT_FOLLOW -- don't follow a symlink. In combination with IN_ONLYDIR we can make sure that we don't watch the target of symlinks. The issues the flags fix came up when writing the gnome-vfs inotify backend. Default behaviour is unchanged.

| * [PATCH] Fix listxattr() for generic security attributesDaniel Drake2005-12-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f549d6c18c0e8e6cf1bf0e7a47acc1daf7e2cec1 introduced a generic fallback for security xattrs, but appears to include a subtle bug. Gentoo users with kernels with selinux compiled in, and coreutils compiled with acl support, noticed that they could not copy files on tmpfs using 'cp'. cp (compiled with acl support) copies the file, lists the extended attributes on the old file, copies them all to the new file, and then exits. However the listxattr() calls were failing with this odd behaviour: llistxattr("a.out", (nil), 0) = 17 llistxattr("a.out", 0x7fffff8c6cb0, 17) = -1 ERANGE (Numerical result out of range) I believe this is a simple problem in the logic used to check the buffer sizes; if the user sends a buffer the exact size of the data, then its ok :) This change solves the problem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Steve Dickson writes: Doing the following: 1. On server: $ mkdir ~/t $ echo Hello > ~/t/tmp 2. On client, wait for a string to appear in this file: $ until grep -q foo t/tmp ; do echo -n . ; sleep 1 ; done 3. On server, create a *new* file with the same name containing that string: $ mv ~/t/tmp ~/t/tmp.old; echo foo > ~/t/tmp will show how the client will never (and I mean never ;-) ) see the updated file. The problem is that we do not update nfsi->cache_change_attribute when the file changes on the server (we only update it when our client makes the changes). This again means that functions like nfs_check_verifier() will fail to register when the parent directory has changed and should trigger a dentry lookup revalidation.

| * [PATCH] hfsplus: don't modify journaled volumeRoman Zippel2005-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Access to a journaled HFS+ volume is not officially supported under Linux, so mount such a volume read-only, but users can override this behaviour using the "force" mount option. The minimum requirement to relax this check is to at least check that the journal is empty and so nothing needs to be replayed to make sure the volume is consistent.

| * [PATCH] reiserfs: handle cnode allocation failure gracefullyJeff Mahoney2005-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If an external device is used for a journal, by default it will use the entire device. The reiserfs journal code allocates structures per journal block when it mounts the file system. If the journal device is too large, and memory cannot be allocated for the structures, it will continue and ultimately panic when it can't pull one off the free list. This patch handles the allocation failure gracefully and prints an error message at mount time. Changes: Updated error message to be more descriptive to the user.

| * [JFFS2] Fix the slab cache constructor of 'struct jffs2_inode_info' objects.Thomas Gleixner2005-11-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | JFFS2 initialize f->sem mutex as "locked" in the slab constructor which is a bug. Objects are freed with unlocked f->sem mutex. So, when they allocated again, f->sem is unlocked because the slab cache constructor is not called for them. The constructor is called only once when memory pages are allocated for objects (namely, when the slab layer allocates new slabs). So, sometimes 'struct jffs2_inode_info' are allocated with unlocked f->sem, sometimes with locked. This is a bug. Instead, initialize f->sem as unlocked in the constructor. I.e., in the "constructed" state f->sem must be unlocked. From: Keijiro Yano <keijiro_yano@yahoo.co.jp> Acked-by: Artem B.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corrects the return value for the EXT3_IOC_GROUP_ADD in case it fails due to the presence of multiple resizers at the filesystem. The problem is a little bit more serious than a wrong return value in this case, since the clause err=0 in the exit_journal path will lead to a call to update_backups which in turns causes a NULL pointer dereference.

| * mm: re-architect the VM_UNPAGED logicLinus Torvalds2005-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP. It allows a VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM never touches, and never considers to be normal pages. Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or indeed mark them any other way. It just works. As a side effect, doing mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges. Sparc update from David in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* NFS: Fix a spinlock recursion inside nfs_update_inode()Trond Myklebust2005-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In cases where the server has gone insane, nfs_update_inode() may end up calling nfs_invalidate_inode(), which again calls stuff that takes the inode->i_lock that we're already holding. In addition, given the sort of things we have in NFS these days that need to be cleaned up on inode release, I'm not sure we should ever be calling make_bad_inode(). Fix up spinlock recursion, and limit nfs_invalidate_inode() to clearing the caches, and marking the inode as being stale. Thanks to Steve Dickson <SteveD@redhat.com> for spotting this.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, if a hugetlbfs is mounted without limits (the default), statfs() will return -1 for max/free/used blocks. This does not appear to be in line with normal convention: simple_statfs() and shmem_statfs() both return 0 in similar cases. Worse, it confuses the translation logic in put_compat_statfs(), causing it to return -EOVERFLOW on such a mount. This patch alters hugetlbfs_statfs() to return 0 for max/free/used blocks on a mount without limits.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In fs/compat.c, whenever put_compat_statfs() returns an error, the containing syscall returns -EFAULT. This is presumably by analogy with the non-compat case, where any non-zero code from copy_to_user() should be translated into an EFAULT. However, put_compat_statfs() is also return -EOVERFLOW. The same applies for put_compat_statfs64(). This bug can be observed with a statfs() on a hugetlbfs directory. hugetlbfs, when mounted without limits reports available, free and total blocks as -1 (itself a bug, another patch coming). statfs() will mysteriously return EFAULT although it's parameters are perfectly valid addresses. This patch causes the compat versions of statfs() and statfs64() to correctly propogate the return values from put_compat_statfs() and put_compat_statfs64().
