SUS requires that when truncating a file to the size that it currently is: truncate and ftruncate should NOT modify ctime or mtime O_TRUNC SHOULD modify ctime and mtime. Currently mtime and ctime are always modified on most local filesystems (side effect of ->truncate) or never modified (on NFS). With this patch: ATTR_CTIME|ATTR_MTIME are sent with ATTR_SIZE precisely when an update of these times is required whether size changes or not (via a new argument to do_truncate). This allows NFS to do the right thing for O_TRUNC. inode_setattr nolonger forces ATTR_MTIME|ATTR_CTIME when the ATTR_SIZE sets the size to it's current value. This allows local filesystems to do the right thing for f?truncate. Also, the logic in inode_setattr is changed a bit so there are two return points. One returns the error from vmtruncate if it failed, the other returns 0 (there can be no other failure). Finally, if vmtruncate succeeds, and ATTR_SIZE is the only change requested, we now fall-through and mark_inode_dirty. If a filesystem did not have a ->truncate function, then vmtruncate will have changed i_size, without marking the inode as 'dirty', and I think this is wrong.

->permission and ->lookup have a struct nameidata * argument these days to pass down lookup intents. Unfortunately some callers of lookup_hash don't actually pass this one down. For lookup_one_len() we don't have a struct nameidata to pass down, but as this function is a library function only used by filesystem code this is an acceptable limitation. All other callers should pass down the nameidata, so this patch changes the lookup_hash interface to only take a struct nameidata argument and derives the other two arguments to __lookup_hash from it. All callers already have the nameidata argument available so this is not a problem. At the same time I'd like to deprecate the lookup_hash interface as there are better exported interfaces for filesystem usage. Before it can actually be removed I need to fix up rpc_pipefs.

A few more callers of permission() just want to check for a different access pattern on an already open file. This patch adds a wrapper for permission() that takes a file in preparation of per-mount read-only support and to clean up the callers a little.

The nameidata "last.name" is always allocated with "__getname()", and should always be free'd with "__putname()". Using "putname()" without the underscores will leak memory, because the allocation will have been hidden from the AUDITSYSCALL code. Arguably the real bug is that the AUDITSYSCALL code is really broken, but in the meantime this fixes the problem people see. Reported by Robert Derr, patch by Rick Lindsley.

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.

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().

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. See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

Getting rid of sloppy logics: a) in do_follow_link() we have the wrong vfsmount dropped if our symlink had been mounted on something. Currently it worls only because we never get such situation (modulo filesystem playing dirty tricks on us). And it obfuscates already convoluted logics... b) same goes for open_namei(). c) in __link_path_walk() we have another "it should never happen" sloppiness - out_dput: there does double-free on underlying vfsmount and leaks the covering one if we hit it just after crossing a mountpoint. Again, wrong vfsmount getting dropped. d) another too-early-mntput() race - in do_follow_mount() we need to postpone conditional mntput(path->mnt) until after dput(path->dentry).

mntget(path->mnt) in do_follow_link() moved down to right before the __do_follow_link() call and rigth after loop: resp. dput()+mntput() on non-ELOOP branch moved up to right after __do_follow_link() call. resulting loop: mntget(path->mnt); path_release(nd); dput(path->mnt); mntput(path->mnt); replaced with equivalent dput(path->mnt); path_release(nd); Equivalent transformations - the reason why we have that mntget() is that __do_follow_link() can drop a reference to nd->mnt and that's what holds path->mnt. So that call can happen at any point prior to __do_follow_link() touching nd->mnt. The rest is obvious. NOTE: current tree relies on symlinks *never* being mounted on anything.
