fs: remove generic_acl

2014-01-26T13:26:40+00:00

And instead convert tmpfs to use the new generic ACL code, with two stub
methods provided for in-memory filesystems.

fs: make posix_acl_create more useful

2014-01-26T04:58:18+00:00

Rename the current posix_acl_created to __posix_acl_create and add
a fully featured helper to set up the ACLs on file creation that
uses get_acl().

fs: make posix_acl_chmod more useful

2014-01-26T04:58:18+00:00

Rename the current posix_acl_chmod to __posix_acl_chmod and add
a fully featured ACL chmod helper that uses the ->set_acl inode
operation.

userns: Pass a userns parameter into posix_acl_to_xattr and posix_acl_from_xattr

2012-09-18T08:01:35+00:00

 - Pass the user namespace the uid and gid values in the xattr are stored
   in into posix_acl_from_xattr.

 - Pass the user namespace kuid and kgid values should be converted into
   when storing uid and gid values in an xattr in posix_acl_to_xattr.

- Modify all callers of posix_acl_from_xattr and posix_acl_to_xattr to
  pass in &init_user_ns.

In the short term this change is not strictly needed but it makes the
code clearer.  In the longer term this change is necessary to be able to
mount filesystems outside of the initial user namespace that natively
store posix acls in the linux xattr format.

switch posix_acl_equiv_mode() to umode_t *

... so that &inode->i_mode could be passed to it

fs: take the ACL checks to common code

2011-07-25T18:30:23+00:00

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.

kill boilerplates around posix_acl_create_masq()

2011-07-25T18:27:32+00:00

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.

generic_acl: no need to clone acl just to push it to set_cached_acl()

2011-07-25T18:27:31+00:00

In-core acls are copy-on-write, so the reference taken by set_cached_acl() will
do just fine.

kill boilerplate around posix_acl_chmod_masq()

2011-07-25T18:27:30+00:00

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.
