sysfs(2): fs_index() argument is _not_ a pathname (2026-01-16 12:52:04 -0500)
----------------------------------------------------------------
struct filename series
[mostly] sanitize struct filename hanling
Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
----------------------------------------------------------------
Al Viro (67):
init_mknod(): turn into a trivial wrapper for do_mknodat()
init_mkdir(): turn into a trivial wrapper for do_mkdirat()
init_symlink(): turn into a trivial wrapper for do_symlinkat()
init_link(): turn into a trivial wrapper for do_linkat()
allow to use CLASS() for struct filename *
do_faccessat(): import pathname only once
do_fchmodat(): import pathname only once
do_fchownat(): import pathname only once
do_utimes_path(): import pathname only once
chdir(2): import pathname only once
chroot(2): import pathname only once
user_statfs(): import pathname only once
do_sys_truncate(): import pathname only once
do_readlinkat(): import pathname only once
get rid of audit_reusename()
ntfs: ->d_compare() must not block
getname_flags() massage, part 1
getname_flags() massage, part 2
struct filename: use names_cachep only for getname() and friends
struct filename: saner handling of long names
switch __getname_maybe_null() to CLASS(filename_flags)
allow incomplete imports of filenames
struct filename ->refcnt doesn't need to be atomic
file_getattr(): filename_lookup() accepts ERR_PTR() as filename
file_setattr(): filename_lookup() accepts ERR_PTR() as filename
move_mount(): filename_lookup() accepts ERR_PTR() as filename
ksmbd_vfs_path_lookup(): vfs_path_parent_lookup() accepts ERR_PTR() as name
ksmbd_vfs_rename(): vfs_path_parent_lookup() accepts ERR_PTR() as name
do_filp_open(): DTRT when getting ERR_PTR() as pathname
rename do_filp_open() to do_file_open()
do_sys_openat2(): get rid of useless check, switch to CLASS(filename)
simplify the callers of file_open_name()
simplify the callers of do_open_execat()
simplify the callers of alloc_bprm()
execve: fold {compat_,}do_execve{,at}() into their sole callers
do_execveat_common(): don't consume filename reference
switch {alloc,free}_bprm() to CLASS()
non-consuming variant of do_renameat2()
non-consuming variant of do_linkat()
non-consuming variant of do_symlinkat()
non-consuming variant of do_mkdirat()
non-consuming variant of do_mknodat()
non-consuming variants of do_{unlinkat,rmdir}()
filename_...xattr(): don't consume filename reference
file_[gs]etattr(2): switch to CLASS(filename_maybe_null)
mount_setattr(2): don't mess with LOOKUP_EMPTY
do_open_execat(): don't care about LOOKUP_EMPTY
vfs_open_tree(): use CLASS(filename_uflags)
name_to_handle_at(): use CLASS(filename_uflags)
fspick(2): use CLASS(filename_flags)
do_fchownat(): unspaghettify a bit...
chdir(2): unspaghettify a bit...
do_utimes_path(): switch to CLASS(filename_uflags)
do_sys_truncate(): switch to CLASS(filename)
do_readlinkat(): switch to CLASS(filename_flags)
do_f{chmod,chown,access}at(): use CLASS(filename_uflags)
namei.c: convert getname_kernel() callers to CLASS(filename_kernel)
namei.c: switch user pathname imports to CLASS(filename{,_flags})
move_mount(2): switch to CLASS(filename_maybe_null)
chroot(2): switch to CLASS(filename)
quotactl_block(): switch to CLASS(filename)
statx: switch to CLASS(filename_maybe_null)
user_statfs(): switch to CLASS(filename)
mqueue: switch to CLASS(filename)
ksmbd: use CLASS(filename_kernel)
alpha: switch osf_mount() to strndup_user()
sysfs(2): fs_index() argument is _not_ a pathname
