	Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-07-29	ext2: remove duplicate 'ext2_get_acl()' define	Linus Torvalds	1	-1/+0
	When commit 4e34e719e457 ("fs: take the ACL checks to common code") changed the xyz_check_acl() functions into the more natural xyz_get_acl() interface, we grew two copies of the #define ext2_get_acl NULL define for the non-acl case. Remove the extra one.

2011-07-25	fs: take the ACL checks to common code	Christoph Hellwig	1	-2/+2
	Replace the ->check_acl method with a ->get_acl method that simply reads an ACL from disk after having a cache miss. This means we can replace the ACL checking boilerplate code with a single implementation in namei.c. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2009-09-08	ext[234]: move over to 'check_acl' permission model	Linus Torvalds	1	-2/+2
	Don't implement per-filesystem 'extX_permission()' functions that have to be called for every path component operation, and instead just expose the actual ACL checking so that the VFS layer can now do it for us.

2008-07-26	[PATCH] sanitize ->permission() prototype	Al Viro	1	-1/+1
	* kill nameidata * argument; map the 3 bits in ->flags anybody cares about to new MAY_... ones and pass with the mask. * kill redundant gfs2_iop_permission() * sanitize ecryptfs_permission() * fix remaining places where ->permission() instances might barf on new MAY_... found in mask. The obvious next target in that direction is permission(9) folded fix for nfs_permission() breakage from Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2005-06-23	[PATCH] remove <linux/xattr_acl.h>	Christoph Hellwig	1	-1/+1

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+82
	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!
