From the user\u0027s view there are lots of different filesystem\ntypes. The user is not even much concerned if the filesystem is fuse based\nor not. So there\u0027s a conflict of interest in how this should be\nrepresented in fstab, mtab and /proc/mounts.\n\nThe current scheme is to encode the real filesystem type in the mount\nsource. So an sshfs mount looks like this:\n\n sshfs#user@server:/ /mnt/server fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,...\n\nThis url-ish syntax works OK for sshfs and similar filesystems. However\nfor block device based filesystems (ntfs-3g, zfs) it doesn\u0027t work, since\nthe kernel expects the mount source to be a real device name.\n\nA possibly better scheme would be to encode the real type in the type\nfield as \"type.subtype\". So fuse mounts would look like this:\n\n /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows fuseblk.ntfs-3g rw,...\n user@server:/ /mnt/server fuse.sshfs rw,nosuid,nodev,...\n\nThis patch adds the necessary code to the kernel so that this can be\ncorrectly displayed in /proc/mounts.\n\nSigned-off-by: Miklos Szeredi \u003cmszeredi@suse.cz\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "1ae7075bcd805c3aa5e8f53effc63a4562d6110e", "tree": "76ce9da136deee264b1642169522981b5175af82", "parents": [ "7b8e89249ba54fb6e12358bbed7e3070fa1d1e6a" ], "author": { "name": "Chris Snook", "email": "csnook@redhat.com", "time": "Tue May 08 00:24:15 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue May 08 11:14:59 2007 -0700" }, "message": "use use SEEK_MAX to validate user lseek arguments\n\nAdd SEEK_MAX and use it to validate lseek arguments from userspace.\n\nSigned-off-by: Chris Snook \u003ccsnook@redhat.com\u003e\nAcked-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "0ceb331433e8aad9c5f441a965d7c681f8b9046f", "tree": "fd3d679a4015242dd65f0721f52242ad47619910", "parents": [ "b46b8f19c9cd435ecac4d9d12b39d78c137ecd66" ], "author": { "name": "Dmitriy Monakhov", "email": "dmonakhov@openvz.org", "time": "Tue May 08 00:23:02 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Tue May 08 11:14:57 2007 -0700" }, "message": "mm: move common segment checks to separate helper function\n\n[akpm@linux-foundation.org: cleanup]\nSigned-off-by: Monakhov Dmitriy \u003cdmonakhov@openvz.org\u003e\nCc: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@lst.de\u003e\nAcked-by: Anton Altaparmakov \u003caia21@cam.ac.uk\u003e\nAcked-by: David Chinner \u003cdgc@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "2d56d3c43cc97ae48586745556f5a5b564d61582", "tree": "28f2edc1e69b79e94d99023041dd0358861b6956", "parents": [ "0f9008ef38d5a6305d94bbdd8f20d68fc75c63b6", "586759f03e2e9031ac5589912a51a909ed53c30a" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon May 07 12:34:24 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon May 07 12:34:24 2007 -0700" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027server-cluster-locking-api\u0027 of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux\n\n* \u0027server-cluster-locking-api\u0027 of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux:\n gfs2: nfs lock support for gfs2\n lockd: add code to handle deferred lock requests\n lockd: always preallocate block in nlmsvc_lock()\n lockd: handle test_lock deferrals\n lockd: pass cookie in nlmsvc_testlock\n lockd: handle fl_grant callbacks\n lockd: save lock state on deferral\n locks: add fl_grant callback for asynchronous lock return\n nfsd4: Convert NFSv4 to new lock interface\n locks: add lock cancel command\n locks: allow {vfs,posix}_lock_file to return conflicting lock\n locks: factor out generic/filesystem switch from setlock code\n locks: factor out generic/filesystem switch from test_lock\n locks: give posix_test_lock same interface as -\u003elock\n locks: make -\u003elock release private data before returning in GETLK case\n locks: create posix-to-flock helper functions\n locks: trivial removal of unnecessary parentheses\n" }, { "commit": "6ce745ed39d35f9d547d00d406db2be7c6c175b3", "tree": "16f471389c9f619c37891fdb6e1843e1f2721c78", "parents": [ "ec0f16372277052a29a6c17527c6cae5e898b3fd" ], "author": { "name": "Jan Kara", "email": "jack@suse.cz", "time": "Sun May 06 14:49:26 2007 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org", "time": "Mon May 07 12:12:52 2007 -0700" }, "message": "readahead: code cleanup\n\nRename file_ra_state.prev_page to prev_index and file_ra_state.offset to\nprev_offset.

They are required\nbecause some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS\nfor example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace\nautomatically where the arch supports it.\n\nProblems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode\nnumber returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and\nfailing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and\nso overlaps occur.\n\nThis patch:\n\nMake filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit\ninode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.\n\nThe stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where\navailable and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode\nnumber supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then\nerror EOVERFLOW will be issued.\n\nSimilarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode\nnumber to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a\ndirectory entry is encountered that can\u0027t be properly represented.\n\nNote that this means that some inodes will not be stat\u0027able on a 32-bit\nsystem with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that\nthere will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.\n\nNote similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a\n32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the\nsame reasons.\n\nIt is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc\nuses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions\nexclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter\nunrepresentable inode numbers anyway.\n\n[akpm: alpha build fix]\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nCc: Trond Myklebust \u003ctrond.myklebust@fys.uio.no\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "128e5ebaf8abbda375bba82690b09630003c9213", "tree": "8c8dcf1f0f8f04a9c56dd2e9378dac1a5a3e4e5c", "parents": [ "d00223f1693173c7b51f867dd52049955a92d0ed" ], "author": { "name": "Steven Whitehouse", "email": "swhiteho@redhat.com", "time": "Mon Oct 02 11:24:43 2006 -0400" }, "committer": { "name": "Steven Whitehouse", "email": "swhiteho@redhat.com", "time": "Mon Oct 02 11:24:43 2006 -0400" }, "message": "[GFS2] Remove iflags.h, use FS_\n\nUpdate GFS2 in the light of David Howells\u0027 patch:\n\n[PATCH] BLOCK: Move common FS-specific ioctls to linux/fs.h [try #6]\n36695673b012096228ebdc1b39a6a5850daa474e\n\nwhich calls the filesystem independant flags FS_..._FL.

For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()\nwhich will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the\nsuperblock\u0027s s_root (as per the old default behaviour).\n\nThe get_sb() op now returns an integer as there\u0027s now no need to return the\nsuperblock pointer.\n\nThis patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount\npoints, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In\nsuch a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root\nand mnt_sb would be set directly.\n\nThe patch also makes the following changes:\n\n (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount\n pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change\n very little.\n\n (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should\n normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will\n always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().\n\n (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the\n dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().\n\n This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that\n aren\u0027t actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The\n currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,\n and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in\n dentries being left unculled.\n\n However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be\n implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is\n simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for \u0027/\u0027 may well be\n inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries\n with child trees.\n\n [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.\n\n (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of\n changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.\n\n[akpm@osdl.org: convert ipath_fs, do other stuff]\nSigned-off-by: David Howells \u003cdhowells@redhat.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@zeniv.linux.org.uk\u003e\nCc: Nathan Scott \u003cnathans@sgi.com\u003e\nCc: Roland Dreier \u003crolandd@cisco.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "c89681ed7d0e4a61d35bdc12c06c6733b718b2cb", "tree": "170d7c54d578480ba231dd690243aa21067ca253", "parents": [ "09d967c6f32b35eab15b45862ae16e4f06259d8e" ], "author": { "name": "Miklos Szeredi", "email": "miklos@szeredi.hu", "time": "Thu Jun 22 14:47:22 2006 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Jun 22 15:05:57 2006 -0700" }, "message": "[PATCH] remove steal_locks()\n\nThis patch removes the steal_locks() function.\n\nsteal_locks() doesn\u0027t work correctly with any filesystem that does it\u0027s own\nlock management, including NFS, CIFS, etc.\n\nIn addition it has weird semantics on local filesystems in case tasks\nsharing file-descriptor tables are doing POSIX locking operations in\nparallel to execve().\n\nThe steal_locks() function has an effect on applications doing:\n\nclone(CLONE_FILES)\n /* in child */\n lock\n execve\n lock\n\nPOSIX locks acquired before execve (by \"child\", \"parent\" or any further\ntask sharing files_struct) will after the execve be owned exclusively by\n\"child\".\n\nAccording to Chris Wright some LSB/LTP kind of suite triggers without the\nstealing behavior, but there\u0027s no known real-world application that would\nalso fail.\n\nApps using NPTL are not affected, since all other threads are killed before\nexecve.\n\nApps using LinuxThreads are only affected if they\n\n -

Things which would require two or three syscalls with\n fadvise() can be done in a single syscall.\n\n- Using fadvise() in this manner is something not covered by POSIX.\n\nThe patch wires up the syscall for x86.\n\nThe sycall is implemented in the new fs/sync.c. The intention is that we can\nmove sys_fsync(), sys_fdatasync() and perhaps sys_sync() into there later.\n\nDocumentation for the syscall is in fs/sync.c.\n\nA test app (sync_file_range.c) is in\nhttp://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/ext3-tools.tar.gz.\n\nThe available-to-GPL-modules do_sync_file_range() is for knfsd: \"A COMMIT can\nsay NFS_DATA_SYNC or NFS_FILE_SYNC. I can skip the -\u003efsync call for\nNFS_DATA_SYNC which is hopefully the more common.\"\n\nNote: the `async\u0027 writeout mode SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE will turn synchronous if\nthe queue is congested.

It makes such attempts appear to\nsucceed, for best 32-bit/64-bit compatibility.
