      Fix nasty ncpfs symlink handling bug. · cc314eef
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs
      used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions.  But those
      functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a
      page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still
      be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk.
      
      We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it
      is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking
      helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability.
      
      We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a
      cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine.  This
      also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

      [PATCH] fsnotify_name/inoderemove · 7a91bf7f
      John McCutchan 提交于
      The patch below unhooks fsnotify from vfs_unlink & vfs_rmdir.  It
      introduces two new fsnotify calls, that are hooked in at the dcache
      level.  This not only more closely matches how the VFS layer works, it
      also avoids the problem with locking and inode lifetimes.
      
      The two functions are
      
       - fsnotify_nameremove -- called when a directory entry is going away.
         It notifies the PARENT of the deletion.  This is called from
         d_delete().
      
       - inoderemove -- called when the files inode itself is going away.  It
         notifies the inode that is being deleted.  This is called from
         dentry_iput().

      [PATCH] inotify · 0eeca283
      Robert Love 提交于
      inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
      its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:
      
              * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
                that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
                open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
              * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
                directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
                the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
                stat structures.
              * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful.  Signals?
      
      inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
      notification:
      
              * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
      	  You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
              * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
                you were watching is on was unmounted."
              * inotify can watch directories or files.
      
      Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
      Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.
