2013-07-08fs/9p: xattr: add trusted and security namespacesJim Garlick
Allow requests for security.* and trusted.* xattr name spaces to pass through to server. The new files are 99% cut and paste from fs/9p/xattr_user.c with the namespaces changed. It has the intended effect in superficial testing. I do not know much detail about how these namespaces are used, but passing them through to the server, which can decide whether to handle them or not, seems reasonable. I want to support a use case where an ext4 file system is mounted via 9P, then re-exported via samba to windows clients in a cluster. Windows wants to store xattrs such as security.NTACL. This works when ext4 directly backs samba, but not when 9P is inserted. This use case is documented here: http://code.google.com/p/diod/issues/detail?id=95 Signed-off-by: Jim Garlick <garlick@llnl.gov> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2013-01-21fs/9p: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTALKees Cook
The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

2011-05-259p: remove experimental tag from tested configurationsEric Van Hensbergen
The 9p client is currently undergoing regular regresssion and stress testing as a by-product of the virtfs work. I think its finally time to take off the experimental tags from the well-tested code paths. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2011-01-11fs/9p: fix menu presentationRandy Dunlap

2010-10-28fs/9p: Implement POSIX ACL permission checking functionAneesh Kumar K.V
The ACL value is fetched as a part of inode initialization from the server and the permission checking function use the cached value of the ACL Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Venkateswararao Jujjuri <jvrao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
2009-09-239p: Add fscache support to 9pAbhishek Kulkarni
This patch adds a persistent, read-only caching facility for 9p clients using the FS-Cache caching backend. When the fscache facility is enabled, each inode is associated with a corresponding vcookie which is an index into the FS-Cache indexing tree. The FS-Cache indexing tree is indexed at 3 levels: - session object associated with each mount. - inode/vcookie - actual data (pages) A cache tag is chosen randomly for each session. These tags can be read off /sys/fs/9p/caches and can be passed as a mount-time parameter to re-attach to the specified caching session.
