Major\nand minor are either an integer or * for all. Access is a composition of r\n(read), w (write), and m (mknod).\n\nThe root device cgroup starts with rwm to \u0027all\u0027.

If someone does \"mv foo/test bar/\", you get event\nIN_MOVE_SELF and you know something has happened with the file \"test\".\nHowever if someone does \"ln foo/test bar/test\" and \"rm foo/test\" you get no\ninotify event for the file \"test\" (only directories \"foo\" and \"bar\" receive\nevents).\n\nFurthermore it could be argued that link count belongs to file\u0027s metadata and\nthus IN_ATTRIB should be sent when it changes.\n\nThe following patch implements sending of IN_ATTRIB inotify events when link\ncount of the inode changes, i.e., when a hardlink to the inode is created or\nwhen it is removed. This event is sent in addition to all the events sent so\nfar. In particular, when a last link to a file is removed, IN_ATTRIB event is\nsent in addition to IN_DELETE_SELF event.\n\nSigned-off-by: Jan Kara \u003cjack@suse.cz\u003e\nAcked-by: Morten Welinder \u003cmwelinder@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Robert Love \u003crlove@google.com\u003e\nCc: John McCutchan \u003cttb@tentacle.dhs.org\u003e\nCc: Steven French \u003csfrench@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Kamalesh Babulal \u003ckamalesh@linux.vnet.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "974a9f0b47da74e28f68b9c8645c3786aa5ace1a", "tree": "79f1aaba6998830be0d11bf7a2258529584b35c3", "parents": [ "d0c4c9d4a2e46f052178806c4004d52cd3ae040f" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Sat Jan 12 14:06:34 2008 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Sat Jan 12 14:47:58 2008 -0800" }, "message": "Use access mode instead of open flags to determine needed permissions\n\nWay back when (in commit 834f2a4a1554dc5b2598038b3fe8703defcbe467, aka\n\"VFS: Allow the filesystem to return a full file pointer on open intent\"\nto be exact), Trond changed the open logic to keep track of the original\nflags to a file open, in order to pass down the the intent of a dentry\nlookup to the low-level filesystem.\n\nHowever, when doing that reorganization, it changed the meaning of\nnamei_flags, and thus inadvertently changed the test of access mode for\ndirectories (and RO filesystem) to use the wrong flag.

I believe it is impossible to get the\nvfsmount of the trigger mount, within the follow_link method, when only the\nparent vfsmount and the root dentry of the trigger mount are known.\n\nThis patch updates the nameidata struct on entry to __do_follow_link if it\ndetects that it is out of date. It moves the path_to_nameidata to above\n__do_follow_link to facilitate calling it from there. The dput_path is moved\nas well as that seemed sensible. No changes are made to these two functions.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ian Kent \u003craven@themaw.net\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@ftp.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@lst.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1b9a3917366028cc451a98dd22e3bcd537d4e5c1", "tree": "d911058720e0a9aeeaf9f407ccdc6fbf4047f47d", "parents": [ "3661f00e2097676847deb01add1a0918044bd816", "71e1c784b24a026a490b3de01541fc5ee14ebc09" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Mar 25 09:24:53 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Mar 25 09:24:53 2006 -0800" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027audit.b3\u0027 of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/audit-current\n\n* \u0027audit.b3\u0027 of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/audit-current: (22 commits)\n [PATCH] fix audit_init failure path\n [PATCH] EXPORT_SYMBOL patch for audit_log, audit_log_start, audit_log_end and audit_format\n [PATCH] sem2mutex: audit_netlink_sem\n [PATCH] simplify audit_free() locking\n [PATCH] Fix audit operators\n [PATCH] promiscuous mode\n [PATCH] Add tty to syscall audit records\n [PATCH] add/remove rule update\n [PATCH] audit string fields interface + consumer\n [PATCH] SE Linux audit events\n [PATCH] Minor cosmetic cleanups to the code moved into auditfilter.c\n [PATCH] Fix audit record filtering with !CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL\n [PATCH] Fix IA64 success/failure indication in syscall auditing.\n [PATCH] Miscellaneous bug and warning fixes\n [PATCH] Capture selinux subject/object context information.\n [PATCH] Exclude messages by message type\n [PATCH] Collect more inode information during syscall processing.\n [PATCH] Pass dentry, not just name, in fsnotify creation hooks.\n [PATCH] Define new range of userspace messages.\n [PATCH] Filter rule comparators\n ...\n\nFixed trivial conflict in security/selinux/hooks.c\n" }, { "commit": "7e53cac41da9ebb9be774220c1b2615182667c9d", "tree": "e7da5e8189ed1949d091d28e132736542352b739", "parents": [ "341546f5ad6fce584531f744853a5807a140f2a9" ], "author": { "name": "NeilBrown", "email": "neilb@suse.de", "time": "Sat Mar 25 03:07:57 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Mar 25 08:22:58 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] Honour AOP_TRUNCATE_PAGE returns in page_symlink\n\nAs prepare_write, commit_write and readpage are allowed to return\nAOP_TRUNCATE_PAGE, page_symlink should respond to them.\n\nSigned-off-by: Neil Brown \u003cneilb@suse.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "4af4c52f34606bdaab6930a845550c6fb02078a4", "tree": "a61f9a164fea1819c3bfb970dbffa5d778935965", "parents": [ "8d8c85117fbcbaea7718870ad4b1ddd12940d9b0" ], "author": { "name": "Oleg Drokin", "email": "green@linuxhacker.ru", "time": "Sat Mar 25 03:06:54 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Sat Mar 25 08:22:51 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] Missed error checking for intent\u0027s filp in open_namei().\n\nIt seems there is error check missing in open_namei for errors returned\nthrough intent.open.file (from lookup_instantiate_filp).\n\nIf there is plain open performed, then such a check done inside\n__path_lookup_intent_open called from path_lookup_open(), but when the open\nis performed with O_CREAT flag set, then __path_lookup_intent_open is only\ncalled with LOOKUP_PARENT set where no file opening can occur yet.\n\nLater on lookup_hash is called where exact opening might take place and\nintent.open.file may be filled.

These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous\noccasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,\nthey are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working\ndirectory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.\n\nWe have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the\n/proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some\nresults (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).\n\nThe test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem.
