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().

ext4: fix the number of credits needed for acl ops with inline data

2013-02-09T20:23:03+00:00

Operations which modify extended attributes may need extra journal
credits if inline data is used, since there is a chance that some
extended attributes may need to get pushed to an external attribute
block.

Changes to reflect this was made in xattr.c, but they were missed in
fs/ext4/acl.c.  To fix this, abstract the calculation of the number of
credits needed for xattr operations to an inline function defined in
ext4_jbd2.h, and use it in acl.c and xattr.c.

Also move the function declarations used in inline.c from xattr.h
(where they are non-obviously hidden, and caused problems since
ext4_jbd2.h needs to use the function ext4_has_inline_data), and move
them to ext4.h.

ext4: pass context information to jbd2__journal_start()

2013-02-09T02:59:22+00:00

So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for
long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass
context information for logging purposes.

The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is:

   T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing
   EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats
   echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter
   echo 1 > $EVENT/enable

   ./run-my-fs-benchmark

   cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles

This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms.  Having
longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong
time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an
fsync() or an O_SYNC operation.  Here is an example line from the
trace file describing a handle which lived on for 311 jiffies, or over
1.2 seconds:

postmark-2917  [000] ....   196.435786: jbd2_handle_stats: dev 254,32 
   tid 570 type 2 line_no 2541 interval 311 sync 0 requested_blocks 1
   dirtied_blocks 0

ext4: fix memory leak in ext4_xattr_set_acl()'s error path

2012-11-08T20:11:11+00:00

In ext4_xattr_set_acl(), if ext4_journal_start() returns an error,
posix_acl_release() will not be called for 'acl' which may result in a
memory leak.

This patch fixes that.

userns: Convert extN to support kuids and kgids in posix acls

2012-09-18T08:01:36+00:00

Convert ext2, ext3, and ext4 to fully support the posix acl changes,
using e_uid e_gid instead e_id.

Enabled building with posix acls enabled, all filesystems supporting
user namespaces, now also support posix acls when user namespaces are enabled.

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.
