logfs: remove from tree

2016-12-15T04:48:11+00:00

Logfs was introduced to the kernel in 2009, and hasn't seen any non
drive-by changes since 2012, while having lots of unsolved issues
including the complete lack of error handling, with more and more
issues popping up without any fixes.

The logfs.org domain has been bouncing from a mail, and the maintainer
on the non-logfs.org domain hasn't repsonded to past queries either.

fs: Replace CURRENT_TIME with current_time() for inode timestamps

2016-09-28T01:06:21+00:00

CURRENT_TIME macro is not appropriate for filesystems as it
doesn't use the right granularity for filesystem timestamps.
Use current_time() instead.

CURRENT_TIME is also not y2038 safe.

This is also in preparation for the patch that transitions
vfs timestamps to use 64 bit time and hence make them
y2038 safe. As part of the effort current_time() will be
extended to do range checks. Hence, it is necessary for all
file system timestamps to use current_time(). Also,
current_time() will be transitioned along with vfs to be
y2038 safe.

Note that whenever a single call to current_time() is used
to change timestamps in different inodes, it is because they
share the same time granularity.

fs: support RENAME_NOREPLACE for local filesystems

2016-09-27T09:03:57+00:00

This is trivial to do:

 - add flags argument to foo_rename()
 - check if flags doesn't have any other than RENAME_NOREPLACE
 - assign foo_rename() to .rename2 instead of .rename

Filesystems converted:

affs, bfs, exofs, ext2, hfs, hfsplus, jffs2, jfs, logfs, minix, msdos,
nilfs2, omfs, reiserfs, sysvfs, ubifs, udf, ufs, vfat.

fs: Give dentry to inode_change_ok() instead of inode

2016-09-22T08:56:19+00:00

inode_change_ok() will be resposible for clearing capabilities and IMA
extended attributes and as such will need dentry. Give it as an argument
to inode_change_ok() instead of an inode. Also rename inode_change_ok()
to setattr_prepare() to better relect that it does also some
modifications in addition to checks.

Merge branch 'salted-string-hash'

2016-07-28T19:26:31+00:00

This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the
_beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end.

That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we
can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache
setup, and do less at lookup runtime.

It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in
a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended
interface ends up working well for other cases too.

Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a
'salt' pointer of NULL.
