DazukoFS early preview in CVS

Hi,

This weekend I finally found some time to commit all the work for
DazukoFS into CVS and started to get things organized for a 3.0.0-pre1
preview version. It isn't finished yet, but there is enough done that
you can see what things will look like starting with Dazuko 3.x.

finished (experimentally!):
- new directory layout
- DazukoFS for Linux 2.6.8 (only this version at the moment)
- ON_OPEN events
- C-example program

not yet finished:
- DazukoFS for Linux 2.6.18 and FreeBSD 6 (but nearly finished!)
- other events
- NFS
- full name resolution (currently only pseudo names are available)
- thorough documentation
- other example programs
- "main" Makefile for building/installing user/kernel components
- options for specifying install paths

Starting with Dazuko 3.0.0 there will no longer be support for syscall
hooking or LSM. DazukoFS will be the only operating mode for Dazuko.
Those interested in LSM or syscall hooking will have to stay with the
2.x series.

Although the current version only produces pseudo names, a registered
application will receive the real content of the file when opening the

2.3.2-pre2 posted

Hi,

Yesterday Timo Metsala pointed out (and fixed) a name cache leak in
Dazuko. This leak exists in versions 2.1.0-pre4 - 2.3.2-pre1. The
following systems are affected by this:

- Linux 2.2
- Linux 2.4
- Linux 2.6 (if Dazuko is configured with --enable-syscalls)

If you are running Linux/RSBAC or Linux 2.6 (with Dazuko as an LSM
module) or any other non-Linux system, then you are _not_ affected by this.

2.3.2-pre2 fixes this problem.

2.3.2 released

Hi,

Dazuko 2.3.2 has been released. This new version addresses some very
important fixes for Linux systems, which are using syscall-hooking. This
includes Linux 2.2, Linux 2.4, and (if configured using
--enable-syscalls) Linux 2.6. If you are running Dazuko on such a
system, you are strongly encouraged to update. More information about
this can be found here:

http://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?5552

A fix for Linux 2.6  using LSM (the default for Linux 2.6) has also been
implemented, which will allow Dazuko to stack as a secondary module.
This may allow Dazuko to work correctly with SElinux (although I have
not tested this).

As usual, this version also adds support for the latest Linux 2.6 kernels.
