Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 4/8] rxrpc: Allow the app to store private data on peer structs
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 21:01:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260730010137.1700032-4-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260730010137.1700032-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit f3a123b25429dc03508e3bf598373005220b7203 ]

Provide a way for the application (e.g. the afs filesystem) to store
private data on the rxrpc_peer structs for later retrieval via the call
object.

This will allow afs to store a pointer to the afs_server object on the
rxrpc_peer struct, thereby obviating the need for afs to keep lookup tables
by which it can associate an incoming call with server that transmitted it.
