* New locking/refcounting for fs_structAl Viro2009-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * all changes of current->fs are done under task_lock and write_lock of old fs->lock * refcount is not atomic anymore (same protection) * its decrements are done when removing reference from current; at the same time we decide whether to free it. * put_fs_struct() is gone * new field - ->in_exec. Set by check_unsafe_exec() if we are trying to do execve() and only subthreads share fs_struct. Cleared when finishing exec (success and failure alike). Makes CLONE_FS fail with -EAGAIN if set. * check_unsafe_exec() may fail with -EAGAIN if another execve() from subthread is in progress. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* Take fs_struct handling to new file (fs/fs_struct.c)Al Viro2009-03-31
| | | | | | | | | | Pure code move; two new helper functions for nfsd and daemonize (unshare_fs_struct() and daemonize_fs_struct() resp.; for now - the same code as used to be in callers). unshare_fs_struct() exported (for nfsd, as copy_fs_struct()/exit_fs() used to be), copy_fs_struct() and exit_fs() don't need exports anymore.

* Annotate struct fs_struct's usage count restrictionDavid Howells2009-03-28
| | | | | | | | | | | Annotate struct fs_struct's usage count to indicate the restrictions upon it. It may not be incremented, except by clone(CLONE_FS), as this affects the check in check_unsafe_exec() in fs/exec.c.

* Make set_fs_{root,pwd} take a struct pathJan Blunck2008-02-15
| | | | | | | | | | | In nearly all cases the set_fs_{root,pwd}() calls work on a struct path. Change the function to reflect this and use path_get() here.

* [PATCH] Move fs_cachep to linux/fs_struct.hChristoph Lameter2006-12-07
| | | | | | | | | | fs_cachep is only used in kernel/exit.c and in kernel/fork.c. It is used to store fs_struct items so it should be placed in linux/fs_struct.h Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

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!
