2010-10-25Coda: replace BKL with mutexYoshihisa Abe
Replace the BKL with a mutex to protect the venus_comm structure which binds the mountpoint with the character device and holds the upcall queues.

2010-10-25Coda: push BKL regions into coda_upcall()Yoshihisa Abe
Now that shared inode state is locked using the cii->c_lock, the BKL is only used to protect the upcall queues used to communicate with the userspace cache manager. The remaining state is all local and we can push the lock further down into coda_upcall().

2007-07-21coda: remove CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcallsJan Harkes
This is an variation on the patch sent by Christoph Hellwig which kills file_count abuse by the Coda kernel module by moving the coda_flush functionality into coda_release. However part of reason we were using the coda_flush callback was to allow Coda to pass errors that occur during writeback from the userspace cache manager back to close(). As Al Viro explained on linux-fsdevel, it is impossible to guarantee that such errors can in fact be returned back to the caller. There are many cases where the last reference to a file is not released by the close system call and it is also impossible to pick some close as a 'last-close' and delay it until all other references have been destroyed. The CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcall combination is clearly a broken design, and it is better to remove it completely.

2007-07-19coda: block signals during upcall processingJan Harkes
We ignore signals for about 30 seconds to give userspace a chance to see the upcall. As we did not block signals we ended up in a busy loop for the remainder of the period when a signal is received.

2006-06-23[PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to perform statfs with a known root dentryDavid Howells
Give the statfs superblock operation a dentry pointer rather than a superblock pointer. This complements the get_sb() patch. That reduced the significance of sb->s_root, allowing NFS to place a fake root there. However, NFS does require a dentry to use as a target for the statfs operation. This permits the root in the vfsmount to be used instead. linux/mount.h has been added where necessary to make allyesconfig build successfully. Interest has also been expressed for use with the FUSE and XFS filesystems.

2003-09-16[PATCH] Coda updates [4/5]Jan Harkes
The ViceFid structure is really a Coda server datatype and the kernel really shouldn't have to know its internal structure. Replace all instances with struct CodaFid with opaque members.
2003-09-16[PATCH] Coda updates [3/5]Jan Harkes
Both userspace and the kernel are testing only the fsuid part of the coda_creds credentials structure. Nothing else is really used, so we now match the code with the actual usage by only passing fsuid around. The kernel-userspace API is kept compatible (for now).
2003-09-16[PATCH] Coda updates [2/5]Jan Harkes
Use a global 'epoch' counter to invalidate cached permissions instead of traversing a racy linked list of all known Coda inodes.
2003-09-16[PATCH] Coda updates [1/5]Jan Harkes
- Remove unused functions and variables. - Be a bit more strict with the definition of various types that are shared between kernel and userspace. - Included a couple of cleanups from Maximilian Attems and Stephen Hemminger.
2003-06-20[PATCH] Add system calls statfs64 and fstatfs64Andrew Morton
From: Peter Chubb <peter@chubb.wattle.id.au> Add two new system calls, statfs64 and fstatfs64. This has been needed sincew the 64-bit sector_t merge - the current structures will overflow. - Use a common interface (vfs_statfs) with the rest of the kernel, - convert to 32-bit at (f)statfs time. - New field f_frsize gives underlying fragment size for the filesystem. (Solaris has this, and the Open Group describe it). - The old statfs syscalls will now return -EOVERFLOW if the device was too large to be represented inthe old data structures. The new system calls take a size_t argument, which is the size of the structure to be filled in (as requested by Ben LaHaise), to `futureproof' the interface. Has been reviewed by the arch maintainers and by Ulrich Drepper.

fs.h only needs the forward-declaration of struct statfs
2002-11-19[PATCH] *_mknod prototypeAndries E. Brouwer
The dev_t argument of sys_mknod is passed to vfs_mknod, and is then cast to int when foo_mknod is called, and is subsequently very often cast back to dev_t. (For example, minix_mknod() calls minix_set_inode() that takes a dev_t.) This is a cleanup that avoids this back-and-forth casting by giving foo_mknod a prototype with dev_t. In most cases now the dev_t is transmitted untouched until init_special_inode. It also makes the two routines hugetlbfs_get_inode() and shmem_get_inode() static.

2002-10-11[PATCH] Coda FS updateJan Harkes
Most of these changes have been tested and used in the 2.4 tree, so this is mostly a forward port of 2.4 bugfixes. * C99 initializers * Added specific initializations instead of assuming that the private part of the inode is already initialized. * Remove unused code. * Moved container file to the struct file private data, this is to * correct the session semantics model when file updates are fetched from * the server (old 'sessions' shouldn't see the new container yet). * Fixed consistency (and occasional oopes) when mmap-ing Coda files. * Fixing up inode numbers in readdir, old libc5 getcwd was broken. * Nuked upcall_stats, all of this can easily be maintained in userspace, and the existing code suffers from overflows in the fixed point calculations.
2002-10-08[PATCH] struct super_block cleanup - finalBrian Gerst
This last patch removes the union, replacing it with s_fs_info.
2002-02-04v2.4.3.6 -> v2.4.3.7Linus Torvalds
- Johannes Erdfelt: USB updates - David Howells: more rw-sem stuff - David Miller: network callback cleanups and fixes - Jan Harkes: make Coda use the proper VFS layer interfaces, so that it can use "non-traditional-unix" filesystems without inode numbers for backing store.
