*	coda: remove CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcalls	Jan Harkes	2007-07-22	1	-59/+6
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	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.

*	coda: do not grab an uninitialized fd when the open upcall returns an error	Jan Harkes	2007-07-19	1	-2/+5
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	When open fails the fd in the response is uninitialized and we ended up taking a reference on the file struct and never released it.

*	sendfile: remove .sendfile from filesystems that use generic_file_sendfile()	Jens Axboe	2007-07-10	1	-5/+6
\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	They can use generic_file_splice_read() instead. Since sys_sendfile() now prefers that, there should be no change in behaviour. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

*	[PATCH] Remove incorrect unlock_kernel from allocation failure path in ↵	Josh Triplett	2006-07-31	1	-3/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	coda_open() Commit 398c53a757702e1e3a7a2c24860c7ad26acb53ed (in the historical GIT tree) moved the lock_kernel() in coda_open after the allocation of a coda_file_info struct, but left an unlock_kernel() in the allocation failure error path; remove it.

*	[PATCH] vfs: add lock owner argument to flush operation	Miklos Szeredi	2006-06-23	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Pass the POSIX lock owner ID to the flush operation. This is useful for filesystems which don't want to store any locking state in inode->i_flock but want to handle locking/unlocking POSIX locks internally. FUSE is one such filesystem but I think it possible that some network filesystems would need this also. Also add a flag to indicate that a POSIX locking request was generated by close(), so filesystems using the above feature won't send an extra locking request in this case.

*	[PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const	Arjan van de Ven	2006-03-28	1	-1/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/ const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus cache clean) Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

*	[PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_sem	Jes Sorensen	2006-01-10	1	-4/+4
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch converts the inode semaphore to a mutex. I have tested it on XFS and compiled as much as one can consider on an ia64. Anyway your luck with it might be different. Modified-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> (finished the conversion) Signed-off-by: Jes Sorensen <jes@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-17	1	-0/+300
	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!
