Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 1/8] fuse: simplify fuse_lookup_name() interface
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 11:24:32 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225112439.27276-2-luis@igalia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260225112439.27276-1-luis@igalia.com>

fuse_lookup_name() requires a struct fuse_entry_out to be passed in.
However, the only caller that really needs it is fuse_lookup().  And even
this function only cares about the dentry time.

This patch simplifies fuse_lookup_name() so that it doesn't require a struct
as a parameter, replacing it by a local variable.  Instead, there'll be an
(optional) out argument, that can be used to return the dentry time.
