* Kobject: convert fs/* from kobject_unregister() to kobject_put()Greg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | There is no need for kobject_unregister() anymore, thanks to Kay's kobject cleanup changes, so replace all instances of it with kobject_put(). Cc: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This moves the block devices to /sys/class/block. It will create a flat list of all block devices, with the disks and partitions in one directory.

* ecryptfs: clean up attribute messGreg Kroah-Hartman2008-01-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It isn't that hard to add simple kset attributes, so don't go through all the gyrations of creating your own object type and show and store functions. Just use the functions that are already present. This makes things much simpler. Note, the version_str string violates the "one value per file" rule for sysfs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 84427eaef1fb91704c7112bdb598c810003b99f3 (remove task_ppid_nr_ns) moved the task_tgid_nr_ns(task->real_parent) outside of lock_task_sighand(). This is wrong, ->real_parent could be freed/reused. Both ->parent/real_parent point to nothing after __exit_signal() because we remove the child from ->children list, and thus the child can't be reparented when its parent exits. rcu_read_lock() protects ->parent/real_parent, but _only_ if we know it was valid before we take rcu lock.

* remove task_ppid_nr_nsRoland McGrath2008-01-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | task_ppid_nr_ns is called in three places. One of these should never have called it. In the other two, using it broke the existing semantics. This was presumably accidental. If the function had not been there, it would have been much more obvious to the eye that those patches were changing the behavior. We don't need this function. In task_state, the pid of the ptracer is not the ppid of the ptracer. In do_task_stat, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid. I also moved the call outside of lock_task_sighand, since it doesn't need it. In sys_getppid, ppid is the tgid of the real_parent, not its pid.

* Use access mode instead of open flags to determine needed permissionsLinus Torvalds2008-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Way back when (in commit 834f2a4a1554dc5b2598038b3fe8703defcbe467, aka "VFS: Allow the filesystem to return a full file pointer on open intent" to be exact), Trond changed the open logic to keep track of the original flags to a file open, in order to pass down the the intent of a dentry lookup to the low-level filesystem. However, when doing that reorganization, it changed the meaning of namei_flags, and thus inadvertently changed the test of access mode for directories (and RO filesystem) to use the wrong flag. So fix those test back to use access mode ("acc_mode") rather than the open flag ("flag"). Issue noticed by Bill Roman at Datalight.

* hfs: handle more on-disk corruptions without oopsingEric Sandeen2008-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | hfs seems prone to bad things when it encounters on disk corruption. Many values are read from disk, and used as lengths to memcpy, as an example. This patch fixes up several of these problematic cases. o sanity check the on-disk maximum key lengths on mount (these are set to a defined value at mkfs time and shouldn't differ) o check on-disk node keylens against the maximum key length for each tree o fix hfs_btree_open so that going out via free_tree: doesn't wind up in hfs_releasepage, which wants to follow the very pointer we were trying to set up: HFS_SB(sb)->cat_tree = hfs_btree_open() ... failure gets to hfs_releasepage and tries to follow HFS_SB(sb)->cat_tree Tested with the fsfuzzer; it survives more than it used to.

* eCryptfs: fix dentry handling on create error, unlink, and inode destroyMichael Halcrow2008-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corrects some erroneous dentry handling in eCryptfs. If there is a problem creating the lower file, then there is nothing that the persistent lower file can do to really help us. This patch makes a vfs_create() failure in the lower filesystem always lead to an unconditional do_create failure in eCryptfs. Under certain sequences of operations, the eCryptfs dentry can remain in the dcache after an unlink. This patch calls d_drop() on the eCryptfs dentry to correct this. eCryptfs has no business calling d_delete() directly on a lower filesystem's dentry. This patch removes the call to d_delete() on the lower persistent file's dentry in ecryptfs_destroy_inode().

* fat: optimize fat_count_free_clusters()OGAWA Hirofumi2008-01-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On large partition, scanning the free clusters is very slow if users doesn't use "usefree" option. For optimizing it, this patch uses sb_breadahead() to read of FAT sectors. On some user's 15GB partition, this patch improved it very much (1min => 600ms). The following is the result of 2GB partition on my machine. without patch: root@devron (/)# time df -h > /dev/null real 0m1.202s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.440s with patch: root@devron (/)# time df -h > /dev/null real 0m0.378s user 0m0.012s sys 0m0.168s Signed-off-by: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* fix: using joysticks in 32 bit applications on 64 bit systemsAkos Maroy2008-01-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | unfortunately 32 bit apps don't see the joysticks on a 64 bit system. this prevents one playing X-Plane (http://www.x-plane.com/) or other 32-bit games with joysticks. this is a known issue, and already raised several times: http://readlist.com/lists/vger.kernel.org/linux-kernel/28/144411.html http://www.brettcsmith.org/wiki/wiki.cgi?action=browse&diff=1&id=OzyComputer/Joystick unfortunately this is still not fixed in the mainline kernel. it would be nice to have this fixed, so that people can play these games without having to patch their kernel. the following patch solves the problem on 2.6.22.

* NFSv4: Fix open_to_lock_owner sequenceid allocation...Trond Myklebust2008-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NFSv4 file locking is currently completely broken since it doesn't respect the OPEN sequencing when it is given an unconfirmed lock_owner and needs to do an open_to_lock_owner. Worse: it breaks the sunrpc rules by doing a GFP_KERNEL allocation inside an rpciod callback. Fix is to preallocate the open seqid structure in nfs4_alloc_lockdata if we see that the lock_owner is unconfirmed. Then, in nfs4_lock_prepare() we wait for either the open_seqid, if the lock_owner is still unconfirmed, or else fall back to waiting on the standard lock_seqid.
