2014-01-25	jfs: use generic posix ACL infrastructure	Christoph Hellwig	1	-0/+2
	Copy the scheme I introduced to btrfs many years ago to only use the xattr handler for ACLs, but pass plain attrs straight through. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Reviewed-by: Dave Kleikamp <dave.kleikamp@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2011-02-01	fs/vfs/security: pass last path component to LSM on inode creation	Eric Paris	1	-2/+3
	SELinux would like to implement a new labeling behavior of newly created inodes. We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating process. This new behavior would also take into account the name of the new object when deciding the new label. This is not the (supposed) full path, just the last component of the path. This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating /etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these operations. We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops to get things set up correctly. This patch does not implement new behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook. If no such name exists it is fine to pass NULL. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

2005-04-16	Linux-2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	1	-0/+64
	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!
