      AFS: Implement an autocell mount capability [ver #2] · bec5eb61
      wanglei authored
      Implement the ability for the root directory of a mounted AFS filesystem to
      accept lookups of arbitrary directory names, to interpet the names as the names
      of cells, to look the cell names up in the DNS for AFSDB records and to mount
      the root.cell volume of the nominated cell on the pseudo-directory created by
      lookup.
      
      This facility is requested by passing:
      
      	-o autocell
      
      to the mountpoint for which this is desired, usually the /afs mount.
      
      To use this facility, a DNS upcall program is required for AFSDB records.  This
      can be obtained from:
      
      	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/afs/dns.afsdb.c
      
      
      
      It should be compiled with -lresolv and -lkeyutils and installed as, say:
      
      	/usr/sbin/dns.afsdb
      
      Then the following line needs to be added to /sbin/request-key.conf:
      
      	create	dns_resolver afsdb:*	*	/usr/sbin/dns.afsdb %k
      
      This can be tested by mounting AFS, say:
      
      	insmod dns_resolver.ko
      	insmod af-rxrpc.ko
      	insmod kafs.ko rootcell=grand.central.org
      	mount -t afs "#grand.central.org:root.cell." /afs -o autocell
      
      and doing:
      
      	ls /afs/grand.central.org/
      
      which should show:
      
      	archive/  cvs/  doc/  local/  project/  service/  software/  user/  www/
      
      if it works.

      AFS: Don't put struct file on the stack · f6d335c0
      Al Viro authored
      
      
      Don't put struct file on the stack as it takes up quite a lot of space
      and violates lifetime rules for struct file.
      
      Rather than calling afs_readpage() indirectly from the directory routines by
      way of read_mapping_page(), split afs_readpage() to have afs_page_filler()
      that's given a key instead of a file and call read_cache_page(), specifying the
      new function directly.  Use it in afs_readpages() as well.
      
      Also make use of this in afs_mntpt_check_symlink() too for the same reason.

      make sure data is on disk before calling ->write_inode · 26821ed4
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      
      
      Similar to the fsync issue fixed a while ago in commit
      2daea67e we need to write for data to
      actually hit the disk before writing out the metadata to guarantee
      data integrity for filesystems that modify the inode in the data I/O
      completion path.  Currently XFS and NFS handle this manually, and AFS
      has a write_inode method that does nothing but waiting for data, while
      others are possibly missing out on this.
      
      Fortunately this change has a lot less impact than the fsync change
      as none of the write_inode methods starts data writeout of any form
      by itself.

      [PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototype · e6305c43
      Al Viro authored
      
      
      * 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)

      Detach sched.h from mm.h · e8edc6e0
      Alexey Dobriyan authored
      
      
      First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
      function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
      mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.
      
      This patch
      a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
      b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
      c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
      d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
      e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
         getting them indirectly
      
      Net result is:
      a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
         they don't need sched.h
      b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
         on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
         after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).
      
      Cross-compile tested on
      
      	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
      	alpha alpha-up
      	arm
      	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig
      	ia64 ia64-up
      	m68k
      	mips
      	parisc parisc-up
      	powerpc powerpc-up
      	s390 s390-up
      	sparc sparc-up
      	sparc64 sparc64-up
      	um-x86_64
      	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig
      
      as well as my two usual configs.

      AFS: implement basic file write support · 31143d5d
      David Howells authored
      
      
      Implement support for writing to regular AFS files, including:
      
       (1) write
      
       (2) truncate
      
       (3) fsync, fdatasync
      
       (4) chmod, chown, chgrp, utime.
      
      AFS writeback attempts to batch writes into as chunks as large as it can manage
      up to the point that it writes back 65535 pages in one chunk or it meets a
      locked page.
      
      Furthermore, if a page has been written to using a particular key, then should
      another write to that page use some other key, the first write will be flushed
      before the second is allowed to take place.  If the first write fails due to a
      security error, then the page will be scrapped and reread before the second
      write takes place.
      
      If a page is dirty and the callback on it is broken by the server, then the
      dirty data is not discarded (same behaviour as NFS).
      
      Shared-writable mappings are not supported by this patch.

      Make some miscellaneous changes to the AFS filesystem:
      
       (1) Assert RCU barriers on module exit to make sure RCU has finished with
           callbacks in this module.
      
       (2) Correctly handle the AFS server returning a zero-length read.
      
       (3) Split out data zapping calls into one function (afs_zap_data).
      
       (4) Rename some afs_file_*() functions to afs_*() where they apply to
           non-regular files too.
      
       (5) Be consistent about the presentation of volume ID:vnode ID in debugging
           output.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
