Subject: [PATCH 00/13] Support follow_link in RCU-walk. - V2
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2015 15:43:19 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150316043602.23648.52734.stgit@notabene.brown> (raw)
Hi Al,
I believe this series addresses all your concerns about
my first attempt.
The first patch results in nameidata being almost completely
localized to namei.c :-) It also highlights out-of-date
documentation in automount-support.txt :-(
It also exposes (and removes) some ... interesting code in lustre.
I'm not sure how safe it is to remove that.... I didn't think
recursive symlinks used extra stack.
I haven't tested extensively yet but will do that before a "final"
submission.
If you could confirm that I'm moving in the right direction, I would
appreciate it.
Thanks,
NeilBrown

NeilBrown (13):
VFS: replace {,total_}link_count in task_struct with pointer to nameidata
VFS: make all ->follow_link handlers aware for LOOKUP_RCU
VFS: remove nameidata args from ->follow_link and ->put_link
security/selinux: check for LOOKUP_RCU in _follow_link.
VFS/namei: use terminate_walk when symlink lookup fails.
VFS/namei: new flag to support RCU symlinks: LOOKUP_LINK_RCU.
VFS/namei: abort RCU-walk on symlink if atime needs updating.
VFS/namei: enhance follow_link to support RCU-walk.
VFS/namei: enable RCU-walk when following symlinks.
VFS/namei: handle LOOKUP_RCU in page_follow_link_light.
xfs: use RCU to free 'struct xfs_mount'.
XFS: allow follow_link to often succeed in RCU-walk.
NFS: support LOOKUP_RCU in nfs_follow_link.
