alloc_file(): switch to passing O_... flags instead of FMODE_... mode

2018-07-12T14:02:57+00:00

... so that it could set both ->f_flags and ->f_mode, without callers
having to set ->f_flags manually.

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

vfs: Allocate anon_inode_inode in anon_inode_init()

2014-03-27T16:52:54+00:00

Currently we allocated anon_inode_inode in anon_inodefs_mount. This is
somewhat fragile as if that function ever gets called again, it will
overwrite anon_inode_inode pointer. So move the initialization of
anon_inode_inode to anon_inode_init().

fs: remove now stale label in anon_inode_init()

2014-03-26T00:43:34+00:00

The previous commit removed the register_filesystem() call and the
associated error handling, but left the label for the error path that no
longer exists.  Remove that too.

fs: Avoid userspace mounting anon_inodefs filesystem

2014-03-26T00:42:16+00:00

anon_inodefs filesystem is a kernel internal filesystem userspace
shouldn't mess with. Remove registration of it so userspace cannot
even try to mount it (which would fail anyway because the filesystem is
MS_NOUSER).

This fixes an oops triggered by trinity when it tried mounting
anon_inodefs which overwrote anon_inode_inode pointer while other CPU
has been in anon_inode_getfile() between ihold() and d_instantiate().
Thus effectively creating dentry pointing to an inode without holding a
reference to it.

... and kill anon_inode_getfile_private()

2013-11-09T05:16:28+00:00

it's a seriously misguided API, now fortunately without users.

fs/anon_inode: Introduce a new lib function anon_inode_getfile_private()

2013-07-16T13:32:17+00:00

Introduce a new lib function anon_inode_getfile_private(), it creates a new file
instance by hooking it up to an anonymous inode, and a dentry that describe the
"class" of the file, similar to anon_inode_getfile(), but each file holds a
single inode. Furthermore, anyone who wants to create a private anon file will
benefit from this change.
