[PATCH] udf: decrement correct link count in udf_rmdir

2007-05-23T21:32:46Z

It appears that a minor thinko occurred in udf_rmdir and the (already-cleared) link count on the directory that is being removed was being decremented instead of the link count on its parent directory. This gives rise to lots of kernel messages similar to: UDF-fs warning (device loop1): udf_rmdir: empty directory has nlink != 2 (8) when removing directory trees. No other ill effects have been observed but I guess it could theoretically result in the link count overflowing on a very long-lived, much modified directory.

[PATCH] Mark struct super_operations const

This patch is inspired by Arjan's "Patch series to mark struct file_operations and struct inode_operations const". Compile tested with gcc & sparse. Signed-off-by: Josef 'Jeff' Sipek Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] mark struct inode_operations const 3

2007-02-12T17:48:46Z

Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t

2006-12-07T16:39:25Z

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache. The patch was generated using the following script: #!/bin/sh # # Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources. # set -e for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do quilt add $file sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$ mv /tmp/$$ $file quilt refresh done The script was run like this sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache" Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] slab: remove SLAB_KERNEL

2006-12-07T16:39:24Z

SLAB_KERNEL is an alias of GFP_KERNEL. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] UDF: Fix mounting read-write

2006-10-05T23:18:55Z

The UDF filesystem can't be mounted in read-write mode any more, because of forgotten braces. Signed-off-by: Peter Osterlund [ Duh! ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] r/o bind mounts: monitor zeroing of i_nlink

2006-10-01T07:39:30Z

Some filesystems, instead of simply decrementing i_nlink, simply zero it during an unlink operation. We need to catch these in addition to the decrement operations. Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

[PATCH] r/o bind mount prepwork: inc_nlink() helper

2006-10-01T07:39:30Z

This is mostly included for parity with dec_nlink(), where we will have some more hooks. This one should stay pretty darn straightforward for now. Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig Cc: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
