kernfs inherited "security.*" xattr support from sysfs. This patch extends xattr support to "trusted.*" using simple_xattr_*(). As trusted xattrs are restricted to CAP_SYS_ADMIN, simple_xattr_*() which uses kernel memory for storage shouldn't be problematic. Note that the existing "security.*" support doesn't implement get/remove/list and the this patch only implements those ops for "trusted.*". We probably want to extend those ops to include support for "security.*". This patch will allow using kernfs from cgroup which requires "trusted.*" xattr support.

sysfs_init_inode_attrs() is a bit clumsy to use requiring the caller to check whether @sd->s_iattr is already set or not. Rename it to sysfs_inode_attrs(), update it to check whether @sd->s_iattr is already initialized before trying to initialize it and return @sd->s_iattr. This simplifies the callers. While at it, * Rename struct sysfs_inode_attrs pointer variables to "attrs". As kernfs no longer deals with "struct attribute", this isn't confusing and makes it easier to distinguish from struct iattr pointers. * A new field will be added to sysfs_inode_attrs. Reindent in preparation. This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

We're in the process of separating out core sysfs functionality into kernfs which will deal with sysfs_dirents directly. This patch rearranges mount path so that the kernfs and sysfs parts are separate. * As sysfs_super_info won't be visible outside kernfs proper, kernfs_super_ns() is added to allow kernfs users to access a super_block's namespace tag. * Generic mount operation is separated out into kernfs_mount_ns(). sysfs_mount() now just performs sysfs-specific permission check, acquires namespace tag, and invokes kernfs_mount_ns(). * Generic superblock release is separated out into kernfs_kill_sb() which can be used directly as file_system_type->kill_sb(). As sysfs needs to put the namespace tag, sysfs_kill_sb() wraps kernfs_kill_sb() with ns tag put. * sysfs_dir_cachep init and sysfs_inode_init() are separated out into kernfs_init(). kernfs_init() uses only small amount of memory and trying to handle and propagate kernfs_init() failure doesn't make much sense. Use SLAB_PANIC for sysfs_dir_cachep and make sysfs_inode_init() panic on failure. After this change, kernfs_init() should be called before sysfs_init(), fs/namespace.c::mnt_init() modified accordingly.

There's nothing sysfs-specific in fs/sysfs/inode.c. Move everything in it to fs/kernfs/inode.c. The respective declarations in fs/sysfs/sysfs.h are moved to fs/kernfs/kernfs-internal.h. This is pure relocation. Signed-off-by: NTejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Core sysfs implementation will be separated into kernfs so that it can be used by other non-kobject users. This patch creates fs/kernfs/ directory and makes boilerplate changes. kernfs interface will be directly based on sysfs_dirent and its forward declaration is moved to include/linux/kernfs.h which is included from include/linux/sysfs.h. sysfs core implementation will be gradually separated out and moved to kernfs. This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes. v2: mount.c added.
