      [PATCH] ext3: journalled quotas · 2df2c24a
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Jan Kara <jack@ucw.cz>
      
      Journalled quota support for ext3: The patch consists of two parts - ext3
      changes and changes in generic quota code.  The main idea of the changes is
      that a transaction is always started before any operation which changes quota
      file and dirtifying of the quota causes its write to disk.  These two changes
      assure that quota change is journalled into the same transaction as the file
      change and hence after journal replay quota is consistent with the filesystem
      state.  As during journal replay inodes from orphan list are deleted/truncated
      we have to do quota_on before the replay of the orphan list - this problem is
      solved by additional mount options to ext3 with quota file names and format.
      
      Some changes in generic code were also needed to assure that quota structure
      in file is always allocated and so ordinary quota operations (like
      adding/deleting a block/inode) need only a few blocks from the transaction.

      [PATCH] mq_open() and close_on_exec · 6ea4e454
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Chris Wright <chrisw@osdl.org>
      
      SUSv3 doesn't seem to specify one way or the other.  I don't have the POSIX
      specs, and the old docs I have suggest that mq_open() creates an object
      which is to be closed upon exec.

        I think it is valid and required:
      
          http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/exec.html
      
          All open message queue descriptors in the calling process shall be
          closed, as described in mq_close()
      
        I'll add a new test for this into glibc testsuite.

      [PATCH] Fix mq_notify with SIGEV_NONE notification · 4c538514
      Andrew Morton authored
      From: Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com>
      
      	mq_notify (q, NULL)
      
      and
      	struct sigevent ev = { .sigev_notify = SIGEV_NONE };
      	mq_notify (q, &ev)
      
      are not the same thing in POSIX, yet the kernel treats them the same.  Only
      the former makes the notification available to other processes immediately,
      see
      
      	http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/functions/mq_notify.html
      
      Without the patch below,
      
      	http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-hacker/2004-04/msg00028.html
      
      glibc test fails.
      
      I looked at mq in Solaris and they behave the same in this regard as Linux
      with this patch.  Kernel with this patch passes both Intel POSIX testsuite
      (with testsuite fixes from Ulrich) and glibc mq testsuite.
