Subject: [PATCH 2/5] NFS: Request a directory delegation on ACCESS, CREATE, and UNLINK
Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2025 10:06:42 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251104150645.719865-3-anna@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251104150645.719865-1-anna@kernel.org>
From: Anna Schumaker <anna.schumaker@oracle.com>
This patch adds a new flag: NFS_INO_REQ_DIR_DELEG to signal that a
directory wants to request a directory delegation the next time it does
a GETATTR. I have the client request a directory delegation when doing
an access, create, or unlink call since these calls indicate that a user
is working with a directory.
