afs: Implement @sys substitution handling

2018-04-09T20:12:31+00:00

Implement the AFS feature by which @sys at the end of a pathname component may be substituted for one of a list of values, typically naming the operating system. Up to 16 alternatives may be specified and these are tried in turn until one works. Each network namespace has[*] a separate independent list. Upon creation of a new network namespace, the list of values is initialised[*] to a single OpenAFS-compatible string representing arch type plus "_linux26". For example, on x86_64, the sysname is "amd64_linux26". [*] Or will, once network namespace support is finalised in kAFS. The list may be set by: # for i in foo bar linux-x86_64; do echo $i; done >/proc/fs/afs/sysname for which separate writes to the same fd are amalgamated and applied on close. The LF character may be used as a separator to specify multiple items in the same write() call. The list may be cleared by: # echo >/proc/fs/afs/sysname and read by: # cat /proc/fs/afs/sysname foo bar linux-x86_64 Signed-off-by: David Howells

afs: Support the AFS dynamic root

2018-02-06T14:43:37+00:00

Support the AFS dynamic root which is a pseudo-volume that doesn't connect to any server resource, but rather is just a root directory that dynamically creates mountpoint directories where the name of such a directory is the name of the cell. Such a mount can be created thus: mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn Dynamic root superblocks aren't shared except by bind mounts and propagation. Cell root volumes can then be mounted by referring to them by name, e.g.: ls /afs/grand.central.org/ ls /afs/.grand.central.org/ The kernel will upcall to consult the DNS if the address wasn't supplied directly.

afs: Fix documentation on # vs % prefix in mount source specification

2017-11-13T15:38:19+00:00

The documentation that describes the #-prefix and the %-prefix used when specifying the source to mount is has the descriptions the wrong way round. Switch them over. Reported-by: Marc Dionne Signed-off-by: David Howells

rxrpc: Change module filename to rxrpc.ko

2017-02-17T20:09:19+00:00

Change module filename from af-rxrpc.ko to rxrpc.ko so as to be consistent with the other protocol drivers. Also adjust the documentation to reflect this. Further, there is no longer a standalone rxkad module, as it has been merged into the rxrpc core, so get rid of references to that.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

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!
