2012-09-26new helper: daemonize_descriptors()Al Viro
descriptor-related parts of daemonize, done right. As the result we simplify the locking rules for ->files - we hold task_lock in *all* cases when we modify ->files. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2012-09-26new helper: iterate_fd()Al Viro
iterates through the opened files in given descriptor table, calling a supplied function; we stop once non-zero is returned. Callback gets struct file *, descriptor number and const void * argument passed to iterator. It is called with files->file_lock held, so it is not allowed to block. tty_io, netprio_cgroup and selinux flush_unauthorized_files() converted to its use.

2012-09-26expose a low-level variant of fd_install() for binderAl Viro
Similar situation to that of __alloc_fd(); do not use unless you really have to. You should not touch any descriptor table other than your own; it's a sure sign of a really bad API design. As with __alloc_fd(), you *must* use a first-class reference to struct files_struct; something obtained by get_files_struct(some task) (let alone direct task->files) will not do. It must be either current->files, or obtained by get_files_struct(current) by the owner of that sucker and given to you. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2012-09-26new helper: __alloc_fd()Al Viro
Essentially, alloc_fd() in a files_struct we own a reference to. Most of the time wanting to use it is a sign of lousy API design (such as android/binder). It's *not* a general-purpose interface; better that than open-coding its guts, but again, playing with other process' descriptor table is a sign of bad design.

2012-02-19Replace the fd_sets in struct fdtable with an array of unsigned longsDavid Howells
Replace the fd_sets in struct fdtable with an array of unsigned longs and then use the standard non-atomic bit operations rather than the FD_* macros. This: (1) Removes the abuses of struct fd_set: (a) Since we don't want to allocate a full fd_set the vast majority of the time, we actually, in effect, just allocate a just-big-enough array of unsigned longs and cast it to an fd_set type - so why bother with the fd_set at all? (b) Some places outside of the core fdtable handling code (such as SELinux) want to look inside the array of unsigned longs hidden inside the fd_set struct for more efficient iteration over the entire set. (2) Eliminates the use of FD_*() macros in the kernel completely. (3) Permits the __FD_*() macros to be deleted entirely where not exposed to userspace.

2012-02-19Wrap accesses to the fd_sets in struct fdtableDavid Howells
Wrap accesses to the fd_sets in struct fdtable (for recording open files and close-on-exec flags) so that we can move away from using fd_sets since we abuse the fd_set structs by not allocating the full-sized structure under normal circumstances and by non-core code looking at the internals of the fd_sets. The first abuse means that use of FD_ZERO() on these fd_sets is not permitted, since that cannot be told about their abnormal lengths. This introduces six wrapper functions for setting, clearing and testing close-on-exec flags and fd-is-open flags: void __set_close_on_exec(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt); void __clear_close_on_exec(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt); bool close_on_exec(int fd, const struct fdtable *fdt); void __set_open_fd(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt); void __clear_open_fd(int fd, struct fdtable *fdt); bool fd_is_open(int fd, const struct fdtable *fdt); Note that I've prepended '__' to the names of the set/clear functions because they require the caller to hold a lock to use them. Note also that I haven't added wrappers for looking behind the scenes at the the array. Possibly that should exist too.

2010-07-20vfs: fix RCU-lockdep false positive due to /procPaul E. McKenney
If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in rcu_dereference_check_fdtable(). This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded process. To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty() provided in a separate commit.

2010-06-14vfs: add fs.h to define struct filePaul E. McKenney

2009-04-03kmemtrace, fs: fix linux/fdtable.h header file dependenciesIngo Molnar
Impact: cleanup We want to remove percpu.h from rcupdate.h (for upcoming kmemtrace changes), but this is not possible currently without breaking the build because fdtable.h has an implicit include file dependency: it uses __init does not include init.h. This can cause build failures on non-x86 architectures: /home/mingo/tip/include/linux/fdtable.h:66: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'files_defer_init' make[2]: *** [fs/locks.o] Error 1 We got this header included indirectly via rcupdate.h's percpu.h inclusion - but if that is not there the build will break.
