Subject: [PATCH 0/7] dcache fixes and cleanups
Date: Tue, 06 Jul 2010 19:40:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100706174028.287568350@szeredi.hu> (raw)

This series fixes sys_getcwd() and symlinks under /proc in case of
unreachable (e.g. lazy unmounted) paths.

The behavior of d_name() is untouched, new helper functions are
introduced instead.

Changes from the previous posting:

 - add helpers to get root and pwd from fs_struct (Nick Piggin's comment)
 - found and fixed a bug in CacheFiles in this area
 - changed ia64/perfmon filesystem to use ->d_dname
 - split up into more managable pataches

Thanks,
Miklos
