Subject: [PATCH v5 14/34] lsm: rename/rework append_ordered_lsm() into lsm_order_append()
Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2025 16:24:42 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251017202456.484010-50-paul@paul-moore.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251017202456.484010-36-paul@paul-moore.com>
Rename append_ordered_lsm() to lsm_order_append() to better match
convention and do some rework. The rework includes moving the
LSM_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE logic from lsm_prepare() to lsm_order_append()
in order to consolidate the individual LSM append/activation code,
and adding logic to skip appending explicitly disabled LSMs to the
active LSM list.
