ext4: Add statx support

2017-04-03T05:05:58+00:00

Return enhanced file attributes from the Ext4 filesystem. This includes the following: (1) The inode creation time (i_crtime) as stx_btime, setting STATX_BTIME. (2) Certain FS_xxx_FL flags are mapped to stx_attribute flags. This requires that all ext4 inodes have a getattr call, not just some of them, so to this end, split the ext4_getattr() function and only call part of it where appropriate. Example output: [root@andromeda ~]# touch foo [root@andromeda ~]# chattr +ai foo [root@andromeda ~]# /tmp/test-statx foo statx(foo) = 0 results=fff Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 4096 regular file Device: 08:12 Inode: 2101950 Links: 1 Access: (0644/-rw-r--r--) Uid: 0 Gid: 0 Access: 2016-02-11 17:08:29.031795451+0000 Modify: 2016-02-11 17:08:29.031795451+0000 Change: 2016-02-11 17:11:11.987790114+0000 Birth: 2016-02-11 17:08:29.031795451+0000 Attributes: 0000000000000030 (-------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- --ai----) Signed-off-by: David Howells Signed-off-by: Al Viro

ext4: do not unnecessarily null-terminate encrypted symlink data

Null-terminating the fscrypt_symlink_data on read is unnecessary because it is not string data --- it contains binary ciphertext. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o

fscrypto: make filename crypto functions return 0 on success

2016-09-15T21:25:55+00:00

Several filename crypto functions: fname_decrypt(), fscrypt_fname_disk_to_usr(), and fscrypt_fname_usr_to_disk(), returned the output length on success or -errno on failure. However, the output length was redundant with the value written to 'oname->len'. It is also potentially error-prone to make callers have to check for '< 0' instead of '!= 0'. Therefore, make these functions return 0 instead of a length, and make the callers who cared about the return value being a length use 'oname->len' instead. For consistency also make other callers check for a nonzero result rather than a negative result. This change also fixes the inconsistency of fname_encrypt() actually already returning 0 on success, not a length like the other filename crypto functions and as documented in its function comment.

mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros

2016-04-04T17:41:08+00:00

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE. This promise never materialized. And unlikely will. We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to PAGE_SIZE. And it's constant source of confusion on whether PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case, especially on the border between fs and mm. Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much breakage to be doable. Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special. They are not. The changes are pretty straight-forward: - << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ; - >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -> ; - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -> PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN}; - page_cache_get() -> get_page(); - page_cache_release() -> put_page(); This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using script below. For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files. I've called spatch for them manually. The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later. There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach. I'll fix them manually in a separate patch. Comments and documentation also will be addressed with the separate patch. virtual patch @@ expression E; @@ - E << (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ expression E; @@ - E >> (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) + E @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_SIZE + PAGE_SIZE @@ @@ - PAGE_CACHE_MASK + PAGE_MASK @@ expression E; @@ - PAGE_CACHE_ALIGN(E) + PAGE_ALIGN(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_get(E) + get_page(E) @@ expression E; @@ - page_cache_release(E) + put_page(E) Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
