Subject: [PATCH v3 08/17] nfsd: nfsd4_create_file(): Move NFSD_MAY_CREATE check earlier
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 16:15:31 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260713062219.6399-9-neilb@ownmail.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260713062219.6399-1-neilb@ownmail.net>
From: NeilBrown <neil@brown.name>
We only need NFS_MAY_CREATE check if the file doesn't exist, but it is
nfsd-specific code as it needs to check NFSEXP_READONLY and I want that
to be separate from vfs-specific code, which eventually all be provided
by the VFS.
So move that check earlier, but hold the error status until needed.
The if/else chain here looks a bit clumsy, but it will make a later
patch cleaner.
