isofs: Do not return EACCES for unknown filesystems

2016-10-28T07:45:28+00:00

commit a2ed0b391dd9c3ef1d64c7c3e370f4a5ffcd324a upstream.

When isofs_mount() is called to mount a device read-write, it returns
EACCES even before it checks that the device actually contains an isofs
filesystem. This may confuse mount(8) which then tries to mount all
subsequent filesystem types in read-only mode.

Fix the problem by returning EACCES only once we verify that the device
indeed contains an iso9660 filesystem.

Merge branch 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
 "Assorted cleanups and fixes.

  Probably the most interesting part long-term is ->d_init() - that will
  have a bunch of followups in (at least) ceph and lustre, but we'll
  need to sort the barrier-related rules before it can get used for
  really non-trivial stuff.

  Another fun thing is the merge of ->d_iput() callers (dentry_iput()
  and dentry_unlink_inode()) and a bunch of ->d_compare() ones (all
  except the one in __d_lookup_lru())"

Merge branch 'salted-string-hash'

2016-07-28T19:26:31+00:00

This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the
_beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end.

That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we
can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache
setup, and do less at lookup runtime.

It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in
a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended
interface ends up working well for other cases too.

Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a
'salt' pointer of NULL.

vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash

2016-06-11T03:21:46+00:00

We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
instead of late.

A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
NULL pointer as a no-salt.

fs: have ll_rw_block users pass in op and flags separately

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

This has ll_rw_block users pass in the operation and flags separately,
so ll_rw_block can setup the bio op and bi_rw flags on the bio that
is submitted.
