Subject: [PATCH v1 08/36] lockd: Move xdr.h from include/linux/lockd/ to fs/lockd/
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2025 15:13:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251218201346.1190928-9-cel@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251218201346.1190928-1-cel@kernel.org>
From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com>
The lockd subsystem unnecessarily exposes internal NLM XDR type
definitions through the global include path. These definitions are
not used by any code outside fs/lockd/, making them inappropriate
for include/linux/lockd/.
Moving xdr.h to fs/lockd/ narrows the API surface and clarifies
that these types are internal implementation details. The comment
in linux/lockd/bind.h claiming xdr.h was needed for "xdr-encoded
error codes" is stale: no lockd API consumers actually use those
codes. A forward declaration for struct nfs_fh is needed because
its definition was previously pulled in transitively through xdr.h.
Built and tested with lockd client/server operations. No functional
change.
