2008-02-07iget: stop JFFS2 from using iget() and read_inode()David Howells
Stop the JFFS2 filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace jffs2_read_inode() with jffs2_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). jffs2_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code instead of an inode in the event of an error. jffs2_do_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode instead of EINVAL.

2007-10-20[JFFS2] Tidy up fix for ACL/permissions problem.KaiGai Kohei
[In commit 9ed437c50d89eabae763dd422579f73fdebf288d we fixed a problem with standard permissions on newly-created inodes, when POSIX ACLs are enabled. This cleans it up...] The attached patch separate jffs2_init_acl() into two parts. The one is jffs2_init_acl_pre() called from jffs2_new_inode(). It compute ACL oriented inode->i_mode bits, and allocate in-memory ACL objects associated with the new inode just before when inode meta infomation is written to the medium. The other is jffs2_init_acl_post() called from jffs2_symlink(), jffs2_mkdir(), jffs2_mknod() and jffs2_do_create(). It actually writes in-memory ACL objects into the medium next to the success of writing meta-information. In the current implementation, we have to write a same inode meta infomation twice when inode->i_mode is updated by the default ACL. However, we can avoid the behavior by putting an updated i_mode before it is written at first, as jffs2_init_acl_pre() doing.

2007-09-02[JFFS2] fix write deadlock regressionJason Lunz
I've bisected the deadlock when many small appends are done on jffs2 down to this commit: commit 6fe6900e1e5b6fa9e5c59aa5061f244fe3f467e2 Author: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Date: Sun May 6 14:49:04 2007 -0700 mm: make read_cache_page synchronous Ensure pages are uptodate after returning from read_cache_page, which allows us to cut out most of the filesystem-internal PageUptodate calls. I didn't have a great look down the call chains, but this appears to fixes 7 possible use-before uptodate in hfs, 2 in hfsplus, 1 in jfs, a few in ecryptfs, 1 in jffs2, and a possible cleared data overwritten with readpage in block2mtd. All depending on whether the filler is async and/or can return with a !uptodate page. It introduced a wait to read_cache_page, as well as a read_cache_page_async function equivalent to the old read_cache_page without any callers. Switching jffs2_gc_fetch_page to read_cache_page_async for the old behavior makes the deadlocks go away, but maybe reintroduces the use-before-uptodate problem?

2007-08-22[JFFS2] Fix ACL vs. mode handling.David Woodhouse

In particular, remove the bit in the LICENCE file about contacting Red Hat for alternative arrangements. Their errant IS department broke that arrangement a long time ago -- the policy of collecting copyright assignments from contributors came to an end when the plug was pulled on the servers hosting the project, without notice or reason. We do still dual-license it for use with eCos, with the GPL+exception licence approved by the FSF as being GPL-compatible. It's just that nobody has the right to license it differently.

2006-09-27[PATCH] inode-diet: Eliminate i_blksize from the inode structureTheodore Ts'o
This eliminates the i_blksize field from struct inode. Filesystems that want to provide a per-inode st_blksize can do so by providing their own getattr routine instead of using the generic_fillattr() function. Note that some filesystems were providing pretty much random (and incorrect) values for i_blksize.

2006-06-23[PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentryDavid Howells
Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock pointer. This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits the root in the vfsmount to be used instead. linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build successfully. Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

2006-05-19[JFFS2] Support new device nodesDavid Woodhouse
Device node major/minor numbers are just stored in the payload of a single data node. Just extend that to 4 bytes and use new_encode_dev() for it. We only use the 4-byte format if we _need_ to, if !old_valid_dev(foo). This preserves backwards compatibility with older code as much as possible. If we do make devices with major or minor numbers above 255, and then mount the file system with the old code, it'll just read the first two bytes and get the numbers wrong. If it comes to garbage-collect it, it'll then write back those wrong numbers. But that's about the best we can expect. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
2006-05-13[JFFS2][XATTR] XATTR support on JFFS2 (version. 5)KaiGai Kohei
This attached patches provide xattr support including POSIX-ACL and SELinux support on JFFS2 (version.5). There are some significant differences from previous version posted at last December. The biggest change is addition of EBS(Erase Block Summary) support. Currently, both kernel and usermode utility (sumtool) can recognize xattr nodes which have JFFS2_NODETYPE_XATTR/_XREF nodetype. In addition, some bugs are fixed. - A potential race condition was fixed. - Unexpected fail when updating a xattr by same name/value pair was fixed. - A bug when removing xattr name/value pair was fixed. The fundamental structures (such as using two new nodetypes and exclusion mechanism by rwsem) are unchanged. But most of implementation were reviewed and updated if necessary. Espacially, we had to change several internal implementations related to load_xattr_datum() to avoid a potential race condition.

2005-11-29[JFFS2] Fix the slab cache constructor of 'struct jffs2_inode_info' objects.Thomas Gleixner
JFFS2 initialize f->sem mutex as "locked" in the slab constructor which is a bug. Objects are freed with unlocked f->sem mutex. So, when they allocated again, f->sem is unlocked because the slab cache constructor is not called for them. The constructor is called only once when memory pages are allocated for objects (namely, when the slab layer allocates new slabs). So, sometimes 'struct jffs2_inode_info' are allocated with unlocked f->sem, sometimes with locked. This is a bug. Instead, initialize f->sem as unlocked in the constructor. I.e., in the "constructed" state f->sem must be unlocked. From: Keijiro Yano <keijiro_yano@yahoo.co.jp> Acked-by: Artem B.

2005-11-06[JFFS2] Add erase block summary support (mount time improvement)Ferenc Havasi
The goal of summary is to speed up the mount time. Erase block summary (EBS) stores summary information at the end of every (closed) erase block. It is no longer necessary to scan all nodes separetly (and read all pages of them) just read this "small" summary, where every information is stored which is needed at mount time. This summary information is stored in a JFFS2_FEATURE_RWCOMPAT_DELETE. During the mount process if there is no summary info the orignal scan process will be executed. EBS works with NAND and NOR flashes, too. There is a user space tool called sumtool to generate this summary information for a JFFS2 image.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
