2011-07-25	fs: take the ACL checks to common code	Christoph Hellwig	1	-1/+1
	Replace the ->check_acl method with a ->get_acl method that simply reads an ACL from disk after having a cache miss. This means we can replace the ACL checking boilerplate code with a single implementation in namei.c. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-07-20	->permission() sanitizing: don't pass flags to ->check_acl()	Al Viro	1	-1/+1
	not used in the instances anymore. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2010-03-05	dquot: move dquot transfer responsibility into the filesystem	Christoph Hellwig	1	-1/+6
	Currently notify_change calls vfs_dq_transfer directly. This means we tie the quota code into the VFS. Get rid of that and make the filesystem responsible for the transfer. Most filesystems already do this, only ufs and udf need the code added, and for jfs it needs to be enabled unconditionally instead of only when ACLs are enabled.

2009-09-08	jffs2/jfs/xfs: switch over to 'check_acl' rather than 'permission()'	Linus Torvalds	1	-1/+1
	This avoids an indirect call in the VFS for each path component lookup. Well, at least as long as you own the directory in question, and the ACL check is unnecessary.

2008-07-26	[PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototype	Al Viro	1	-1/+1
	* 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) folded fix for nfs_permission() breakage from Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2006-10-02	JFS: White space cleanup	Dave Kleikamp	1	-4/+4
	Removed trailing spaces & tabs, and spaces preceding tabs. Also a couple very minor comment cleanups. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com> (cherry picked from f74156539964d7b3d5164fdf8848e6a682f75b97 commit)

2005-06-23	[PATCH] remove <linux/xattr_acl.h>	Christoph Hellwig	1	-2/+0

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+30
	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!
