Subject: [PATCH 1/4] nfs_common: Remove unused nfs_ssc_client_ops infrastructure
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2026 12:23:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260721162306.894558-2-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260721162306.894558-1-cel@kernel.org>

Clean up: Commit 75333d48f922 ("NFSD: fix use-after-free in
__nfs42_ssc_open()") addressed a use-after-free bug by removing the
nfsd4_interssc_disconnect() function. Post-copy clean-up was then
delegated to NFSD's laundromat.

Since that commit, the nfs_do_sb_deactive() wrapper function and the
entire nfs_ssc_client_ops infrastructure no longer have any
consumers. This includes nfs_do_sb_deactive(), struct
nfs_ssc_client_ops, nfs_ssc_register(), nfs_ssc_unregister(), and
related registrations in the NFS client.
