* 9p: add virtio transportEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-23
| | | | | | | | | This adds a transport to 9p for communicating between guests and a host using a virtio based transport. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* typo fixesMatt LaPlante2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases. Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both Kconfigs and documentation texts.

* 9p: remove sysctlEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | A sysctl method was added to enable and disable debugging levels. After further review, it was decided that there are better approaches to doing this and the sysctl methodology isn't really desirable. This patch removes the sysctl code from 9p.

* 9p: fix bad kconfig cross-dependencyEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | This patch moves transport dynamic registration and matching to the net module to prevent a bad Kconfig dependency between the net and fs 9p modules. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: attach-per-userLatchesar Ionkov2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 9P2000 protocol requires the authentication and permission checks to be done in the file server. For that reason every user that accesses the file server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately. Multiple users can share the same connection to the server. Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it depends on the client doing the permission checking. This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option 'access'): - attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u) If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree. As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works only with the 9P2000.u dialect. - allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>) Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt to access it will get EPERM error. - do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000) V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user. If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current one. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: Make transports dynamicEric Van Hensbergen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | This patch abstracts out the interfaces to underlying transports so that new transports can be added as modules. This should also allow kernel configuration of transports without ifdef-hell. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: fix bad error path in conversion routinesMariusz Kozlowski2007-08-23

* 9p: Don't use binary sysctl numbers.Eric W. Biederman2007-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recent 9p commit: bd238fb431f31989898423c8b6496bc8c4204a86 that supposedly only moved files also introduced a new 9p sysctl interface that did not properly register it's sysctl binary numbers. And since it was only for debugging clearly did not need a binary fast path in any case. So this patch just remove the binary numbers. See Documentation/sysctl/ctl_unnumbered.txt for more details. While I was at it I cleaned up the sysctl initializers a little as well so there is less to read.

* 9p: fix a race condition bug in umount which caused a segfaultEric Van Hensbergen2007-07-14
| | | | | | | | umounting partitions after heavy activity would sometimes trigger a segmentation violation. This fix appears to remove that problem. Fix originally provided by Latchesar Ionkov. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* net/9p: set error to EREMOTEIO if trans->write returns zeroLatchesar Ionkov2007-07-14
| | | | | | | | | | If trans->write returns 0, p9_write_work goes through the error path, but sets the error code to zero. This patch sets the error code to EREMOTEIO if trans->write returns zero value. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net>

| | | | | | | Change module name of net/9p module from 9p.ko to 9pnet.ko. fs/9p module already uses 9p.ko name. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net>
* 9p: Reorganization of 9p file system codeLatchesar Ionkov2007-07-14
This patchset moves non-filesystem interfaces of v9fs from fs/9p to net/9p. It moves the transport, packet marshalling and connection layers to net/9p leaving only the VFS related files in fs/9p. This work is being done in preparation for in-kernel 9p servers as well as alternate 9p clients (other than VFS).
