Subject: [PATCH] rbd: kill rbd_init_watch_dev()
Date: Thu, 26 Jul 2012 14:11:18 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <50119656.9080709@inktank.com> (raw)

When an rbd image is mapped, a watch request is issued so that the
client will get notified in the event the image header object
changes.  This is done using rbd_init_watch_dev(), which calls
rbd_req_sync_watch().

rbd_init_watch_dev() is organized as a loop, arranging to re-issue
the request after refreshing the header if -ERANGE ever gets
returned.  But the only way rbd_req_sync_watch() will return -ERANGE
is if the CEPH_OSD_OP_WATCH operation returns that, which it will
not.

As a result, the whole looping structure and in fact the whole
function becomes excessive.  So get rid of rbd_init_watch_dev(),
and call rbd_req_sync_watch() directly in the one place it's used.
