2008-08-01[PATCH 2/2] proc: switch inode number allocation to IDAAlexey Dobriyan1-5/+5
proc doesn't use "associate pointer with id" feature of IDR, so switch to IDA. NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: Do not apply if release_inode_number() still mantions MAX_ID_MASK! Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2008-08-01[PATCH 1/2] proc: fix inode number bogorithmeticAlexey Dobriyan1-12/+9
Id which proc gets from IDR for inode number and id which proc removes from IDR do not match. E.g. 0x11a transforms into 0x8000011a. Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove() masks out that high bit before doing anything. All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number(). I still don't understand how it's supposed to work, because "| ~MASK" is not an inversion for "& MAX" operation. So, use just one nice, working addition. Make start offset unsigned int, while I'm at it. It's longness is not used anywhere. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2008-08-01[PATCH] fix races and leaks in vfs_quota_on() usersAl Viro5-22/+35
* new helper: vfs_quota_on_path(); equivalent of vfs_quota_on() sans the pathname resolution. * callers of vfs_quota_on() that do their own pathname resolution and checks based on it are switched to vfs_quota_on_path(); that way we avoid the races. * reiserfs leaked dentry/vfsmount references on several failure exits.

2008-08-01Re: BUG at security/selinux/avc.c:883 (was: Re: linux-next: TreeStephen Smalley1-1/+1
for July 17: early crash on x86-64) SELinux needs MAY_APPEND to be passed down to the security hook. Otherwise, we get permission denials when only append permission is granted by policy even if the opening process specified O_APPEND. Shows up as a regression in the ltp selinux testsuite, fixed by this patch. Signed-off-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2008-07-31Fix off-by-one error in iov_iter_advance()Linus Torvalds1-1/+1
The iov_iter_advance() function would look at the iov->iov_len entry even though it might have iterated over the whole array, and iov was pointing past the end. This would cause DEBUG_PAGEALLOC to trigger a kernel page fault if the allocation was at the end of a page, and the next page was unallocated. The quick fix is to just change the order of the tests: check that there is any iovec data left before we check the iov entry itself. Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding this case, and testing the fix.

2008-07-31romfs_readpage: don't report errors for pages beyond i_sizeLinus Torvalds1-14/+23
We zero-fill them like we are supposed to, and that's all fine. It's only an error if the 'romfs_copyfrom()' routine isn't able to fill the data that is supposed to be there. Most of the patch is really just re-organizing the code a bit, and using separate variables for the error value and for how much of the page we actually filled from the filesystem.
