* posix_acl: handle NULL ACL in posix_acl_equiv_modeChristoph Hellwig2014-06-091-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 50c6e282bdf5e8dabf8d7cf7b162545a55645fd9 upstream. Various filesystems don't bother checking for a NULL ACL in posix_acl_equiv_mode, and thus can dereference a NULL pointer when it gets passed one. This usually happens from the NFS server, as the ACL tools never pass a NULL ACL, but instead of one representing the mode bits. Instead of adding boilerplat to all filesystems put this check into one place, which will allow us to remove the check from other filesystems as well later on.

* fs: take the ACL checks to common codeChristoph Hellwig2011-07-251-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | Replace the ->check_acl method with a ->get_acl method that simply reads an ACL from disk after having a cache miss. This means we can replace the ACL checking boilerplate code with a single implementation in namei.c. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
* bury posix_acl_..._masq() variantsAl Viro2011-07-251-8/+3

* kill boilerplates around posix_acl_create_masq()Al Viro2011-07-251-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | 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>
* kill boilerplate around posix_acl_chmod_masq()Al Viro2011-07-251-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | 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>
* NFS: Prevent memory allocation failure in nfsacl_encode()Chuck Lever2011-01-251-4/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* CRED: Wrap task credential accesses in the filesystem subsystemDavid Howells2008-11-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Wrap access to task credentials so that they can be separated more easily from the task_struct during the introduction of COW creds. Change most current->(|e|s|fs)[ug]id to current_(|e|s|fs)[ug]id(). Change some task->e?[ug]id to task_e?[ug]id(). In some places it makes more sense to use RCU directly rather than a convenient wrapper; these will be addressed by later patches.

* [PATCH] gfp flags annotations - part 1Al Viro2005-10-081-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | - 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.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+381
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!
