Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] afs: Dynamic root improvements
Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2025 18:34:48 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250107183454.608451-1-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
Here are some patches to make a number of improvements to the AFS dynamic
root:
(1) Create an /afs/.<cell> mountpoint to match the /afs/<cell> mountpoint
when a cell is created.
(2) Add some more checks on cell names proposed by the user to prevent
dodgy symlink bodies from being created. Also prevent rootcell from
being altered once set to simplify the locking.
(3) Change the handling of /afs/@cell from being a dentry name
substitution at lookup time to making it a symlink to the current cell
name and also provide a /afs/.@cell symlink to point to the dotted
cell mountpoint.
The patches are here:

Thanks,
David
