saner FASYNC handling on file close

2008-11-01T16:49:46+00:00

As it is, all instances of ->release() for files that have ->fasync()
need to remember to evict file from fasync lists; forgetting that
creates a hole and we actually have a bunch that *does* forget.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in
file->f_flags and call ->fasync() there if it's been set.  And lose that
crap in ->release() instances - leaving it there is still valid, but we
don't have to bother anymore.

vfs: Use const for kernel parser table

2008-10-13T17:10:37+00:00

This is a much better version of a previous patch to make the parser
tables constant. Rather than changing the typedef, we put the "const" in
all the various places where its required, allowing the __initconst
exception for nfsroot which was the cause of the previous trouble.

This was posted for review some time ago and I believe its been in -mm
since then.

[PATCH] fix MAY_CHDIR/MAY_ACCESS/LOOKUP_ACCESS mess

2008-07-27T00:53:21+00:00

* MAY_CHDIR is redundant - it's an equivalent of MAY_ACCESS
* MAY_ACCESS on fuse should affect only the last step of pathname resolution
* fchdir() and chroot() should pass MAY_ACCESS, for the same reason why
  chdir() needs that.
* now that we pass MAY_ACCESS explicitly in all cases, LOOKUP_ACCESS can be
  removed; it has no business being in nameidata.

[patch 3/5] vfs: change remove_suid() to file_remove_suid()

2008-07-27T00:53:16+00:00

All calls to remove_suid() are made with a file pointer, because
(similarly to file_update_time) it is called when the file is written.

Clean up callers by passing in a file instead of a dentry.

[PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototype

2008-07-27T00:53:14+00:00

* kill nameidata * argument; map the 3 bits in ->flags anybody cares
  about to new MAY_... ones and pass with the mask.
* kill redundant gfs2_iop_permission()
* sanitize ecryptfs_permission()
* fix remaining places where ->permission() instances might barf on new
  MAY_... found in mask.

The obvious next target in that direction is permission(9)
