Subject: [PATCH v4 09/19] cifs: query dir should reuse cfid even if not fully cached
Date: Fri, 1 May 2026 16:50:12 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260501112023.338005-9-sprasad@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260501112023.338005-1-sprasad@microsoft.com>
From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@microsoft.com>
When a cached_dirents population is underway but not yet fully populated,
cifs_readdir does not rely on the local cache, but makes a parallel
stream of QueryDir calls to the server. However, these calls are made
without lease key and that ends up breaking our dir lease.
This change will reuse the existing lease key for this scenario for the
parallel QueryDir calls that are made.
