2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: acls: fix handling of zero-length aclsJ.Bruce Fields
It is legal to have zero-length NFSv4 acls; they just deny everything. Also, nfs4_acl_nfsv4_to_posix will always return with pacl and dpacl set on success, so the caller doesn't need to check this.

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: acls: simplify nfs4_acl_nfsv4_to_posix interfaceJ.Bruce Fields
There's no need to handle the case where the caller passes in null for pacl or dpacl; no caller does that, because it would be a dumb thing to do. Signed-off-by: J.

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: acls: fix inheritanceJ.Bruce Fields
We can be a little more flexible about the flags allowed for inheritance (in particular, we can deal with either the presence or the absence of INHERIT_ONLY), but we should probably reject other combinations that we don't understand.

2006-10-04[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: acls: relax the nfsv4->posix mappingJ.Bruce Fields
Use a different nfsv4->(draft posix) acl mapping which is 1. completely backwards compatible, 2. accepts any nfsv4 acl, and 3. errs on the side of restricting permissions. In detail: 1. completely backwards compatible: The new mapping produces the same result on any acl produced by the existing (draft posix)->nfsv4 mapping; the one exception is that we no longer attempt to guess the value of the mask by assuming certain denies represent the mask. Since the server still keeps track of the mask locally, sequences of chmod's will still be handled fine; the only thing this will change is sequences of chmod's with intervening read-modify-writes of the acl. That last case just isn't worth the trouble and the possible misrepresentations of the user's intent (if we guess that a certain deny indicates masking is in effect when it really isn't). 2. accepts any nfsv4 acl: That's not quite true: we still reject acls that use combinations of inheritance flags that we don't support. We also reject acls that attempt to explicitly deny read_acl or read_attributes permissions, or that attempt to deny write_acl or write_attributes permissions to the owner of the file. 3. errs on the side of restricting permissions: one exception to this last rule: we totally ignore some bits (write_owner, synchronize, read_named_attributes, etc.) that are completely alien to our filesystem semantics, in some cases even if that would mean ignoring an explicit deny that we have no intention of enforcing. Excepting that, the posix acl produced should be the most permissive acl that is not more permissive than the given nfsv4 acl. And the new code's shorter, too. Neato. Signed-off-by: J.

2006-04-11[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: better nfs4acl errorsNeilBrown
We're returning -1 in a few places in the NFSv4<->POSIX acl translation code where we could return a reasonable error. Also allows some minor simplification elsewhere. Signed-off-by: J.

2006-04-11[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: Wrong error handling in nfs4aclNeilBrown
this fixes coverity id #3. Coverity detected dead code, since the == -1 comparison only returns 0 or 1 to error. Therefore the if ( error < 0 ) statement was always false. Seems that this was an if( error = nfs4... ) statement some time ago, which got broken during cleanup. Signed-off-by: Eric Sesterhenn <snakebyte@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: J.

Use ARRAY_SIZE macro instead of sizeof(x)/sizeof(x[0]) and remove a duplicate of ARRAY_SIZE. Some trailing whitespaces are also deleted.

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!
