Hi Linus, Please pull from: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git overlayfs-linus First of all, this fixes a regression in overlayfs introduced by the dentry hash salting. I've moved the patch fixing this to the front of the queue, so if (god forbid) something needs to be bisected in overlayfs this regression won't interfere with that. The biggest part is preparation for selinux support, done by Vivek Goyal. Essentially this makes all operations on underlying filesystems be done with credentials of mounter. This makes everything nicely consistent. There are also fixes for a number of known and recently discovered non-standard behavior (thanks to Eryu Guan for testing and improving the test suites). Thanks, Miklos --- Al Viro (1): qstr: constify instances in overlayfs Andreas Gruenbacher (1): ovl: store ovl_entry in inode->i_private for all inodes Miklos Szeredi (13): ovl: check mounter creds on underlying lookup ovl: use generic_delete_inode ovl: simplify permission checking ovl: fix sgid on directory ovl: update atime on upper ovl: permission: return ECHILD instead of ENOENT ovl: store real inode pointer in ->i_private ovl: share inode for hard link ovl: fix POSIX ACL setting ovl: fix warning ovl: disallow overlayfs as upperdir ovl: clear nlink on rmdir ovl: simplify empty checking Vivek Goyal (7): ovl: move some common code in a function ovl: define ->get_acl() for overlay inodes ovl: modify ovl_permission() to do checks on two inodes ovl: do operations on underlying file system in mounter's context ovl: do not require mounter to have MAY_WRITE on lower ovl: dilute permission checks on lower only if not special file ovl: append MAY_READ when diluting write checks Wei Yongjun (1): ovl: remove duplicated include from super.c --- fs/overlayfs/copy_up.c | 1 + fs/overlayfs/dir.c | 226 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ fs/overlayfs/inode.c | 246 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------- fs/overlayfs/overlayfs.h | 30 ++++-- fs/overlayfs/super.c | 178 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- 5 files changed, 445 insertions(+), 236 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
