3086c49a07 ntfs: avoid leaking uninitialised bytes in new security descriptors
ntfs_sd_add_everyone() builds the on-disk security descriptor for a
newly created file by kmalloc()'ing a buffer and then partially
filling it in:

	sd = kmalloc(sd_len, GFP_NOFS);
	...
	sd->revision = 1;
	sd->control = SE_DACL_PRESENT | SE_SELF_RELATIVE;
	...

The buffer is then handed to ntfs_attr_add() and persisted as the
SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR attribute of the new MFT record.  The descriptor
covers a relative security descriptor header, two SIDs (owner and
group), an ACL header, and a single ACE, but several fields inside
those structures are never written before the buffer is committed
to disk:

  - struct security_descriptor_relative
        @alignment		(1 byte)
        @sacl			(4 bytes; SE_SACL_PRESENT is not set
                                 but the offset still reaches disk)

  - struct ntfs_sid (3 instances: owner, group, ACE.sid)
        identifier_authority.value[0..4] (5 bytes per SID, 15 total
                                          - only value[5] is set)

  - struct ntfs_acl
        @alignment1		(1 byte)
        @alignment2		(2 bytes)

That is 23 bytes of uninitialised slab memory persisted to disk for
every new file or directory the legacy ntfs driver creates.  The
"+ 4" trailing accounting in sd_len holds ace->sid.sub_authority[0],
which the existing code does explicitly write to zero, so it is
not part of the leak.

Anything later able to read the SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR attribute - the
same NTFS volume mounted on Windows or by another NTFS reader, an
offline forensics tool, an unprivileged user that ends up with read
access to the volume - can recover those bytes.  The leak persists
for the lifetime of the file on disk, not just the lifetime of the
kernel that wrote it.

Switch the allocation to kzalloc() so every byte the on-disk
descriptor covers is zero before the explicit initialisations run.
While there, replace the bare "return -1" allocation-failure path
with a proper -ENOMEM so the error reaches userspace as a meaningful
errno instead of an unrelated -EPERM.

Found by inspection while auditing fs/ntfs new-inode paths.

4ebcf3f949 ntfs: drop nlink once for WIN32/DOS aliases
NTFS could store a filename as paired WIN32 and DOS $FILE_NAME attributes
for directories. But ntfs_delete() deleted both attributes for unlinking
a directory, but it also called drop_nlink() for each attributes.
This could trigger warnings when unlinking directories.

14f0a13ec7 ntfs: remove redundant out-of-bound checks
Remove redundant out-of-bounds validations.
Since ntfs_attr_find and ntfs_external_attr_find
now validate the attribute value offsets and
lengths against the bounds of the MFT record block,
performing subsequent bounds checking in caller

1e9ea7e044 Revert "fs: Remove NTFS classic"
This reverts commit 7ffa8f3d30.

Reverts the removal of the classic read-only ntfs driver to
serve as the base for a new read-write ntfs implementation.
If we stack changes on top of the revert patch, It will significantly
reduce the diff size, making the review easier.

This revert intentionally excludes the restoration of Kconfig and
Makefile. The Kconfig and Makefile will be added back in the final patch
of this series, enabling the driver only after all features and
improvements have been applied.

exportfs: make ->encode_fh() a mandatory method for NFS export
Rename the default helper for encoding FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles to
generic_encode_ino32_fh() and convert the filesystems that used the
default implementation to use the generic helper explicitly.

After this change, exportfs_encode_inode_fh() no longer has a default
implementation to encode FILEID_INO32_GEN* file handles.

This is a step towards allowing filesystems to encode non-decodeable
file handles for fanotify without having to implement any
export_operations.

fee2aa7538 ntfs: Use ERR_CAST() to avoid cross-structure cast
When trying to propagate an error result, the error return path attempts
to retain the error, but does this with an open cast across very different
types, which the upcoming structure layout randomization plugin flags as
being potentially dangerous in the face of randomization. This is a false
positive, but what this code actually wants to do is use ERR_CAST() to
retain the error value.

8387ff2577 vfs: make the string hashes salt the hash
We always mixed in the parent pointer into the dentry name hash, but we
did it late at lookup time.  It turns out that we can simplify that
lookup-time action by salting the hash with the parent pointer early
instead of late.

A few other users of our string hashes also wanted to mix in their own
pointers into the hash, and those are updated to use the same mechanism.

Hash users that don't have any particular initial salt can just use the
NULL pointer as a no-salt.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

1b1dcc1b57 [PATCH] mutex subsystem, semaphore to mutex: VFS, ->i_sem
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.

(finished the conversion)

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
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!
