2013-08-26f2fs: support the inline xattrsJaegeuk Kim
0. modified inode structure -------------------------------------- metadata (e.g., i_mtime, i_ctime, etc) -------------------------------------- direct pointers [0 ~ 873] inline xattrs (200 bytes by default) indirect pointers [0 ~ 4] -------------------------------------- node footer -------------------------------------- 1. setxattr flow - read_all_xattrs copies all the xattrs from inline and xattr node block. - handle xattr entries - write_all_xattrs copies modified xattrs into inline and xattr node block. 2. getxattr flow - read_all_xattrs copies all the xattrs from inline and xattr node block. - check target entries 3. Usage # mount -t f2fs -o inline_xattr $DEV $MNT Once mounted with the inline_xattr option, f2fs marks all the newly created files to reserve an amount of inline xattr space explicitly inside the inode block. Without the mount option, f2fs will not touch any existing files and newly created files as well. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
2013-08-26f2fs: introduce __find_xattr for readabilityJaegeuk Kim
The __find_xattr is to search the wanted xattr entry starting from the base_addr. If not found, the returned entry is the last empty xattr entry that can be allocated newly. Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
2013-06-11f2fs: support xattr security labelsJaegeuk Kim
This patch adds the support of security labels for f2fs, which will be used by Linus Security Models (LSMs). Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Security_Modules: "Linux Security Modules (LSM) is a framework that allows the Linux kernel to support a variety of computer security models while avoiding favoritism toward any single security implementation. The framework is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License and is standard part of the Linux kernel since Linux 2.6. AppArmor, SELinux, Smack and TOMOYO Linux are the currently accepted modules in the official kernel.". Signed-off-by: Jaegeuk Kim <jaegeuk.kim@samsung.com>
