Subject: [PATCH RESEND v2 05/23] proc: keep the open files of an entry in an open node
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2026 20:30:30 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104-work-procfs-core-v2-5-76ace653a773@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104-work-procfs-core-v2-0-76ace653a773@kernel.org>

procfs remembers the open files of an entry that has a ->proc_release(),
so that it can call the release hook when the entry is removed while
files are still open. The list head for that and the lock that protects
it sit in every struct proc_dir_entry, for the few entries that need
them, and the next patches want to keep more there, the vm_operations
of an entry's mappings for a start.

Move the list into a struct pde_open_node that only those entries get.
It is allocated when the entry is registered, whether an entry needs
one follows from its proc_ops, and freed with the entry. So ->open is
constant for the life of an entry, nothing has to look it up or pin it,
and the removal path stays what it is. kernfs allocates its
kernfs_open_node on the first open instead, but there every attribute
can be polled and so every one of them would need one. In procfs the
entries that need the node are the exception. Permanent entries don't
get one, they are never removed, so their release hook only ever runs
when a file is closed.

The spinlock stays in the entry and now protects what hangs off ->open.
Moving it behind the gid fills a hole, so struct proc_dir_entry shrinks
from 160 to 144 bytes on x86_64 here, and it ends up at 160 bytes at
the end of this series instead of the 184 it would have grown to with
the read and write limits and the vm_operations of its mappings in it.
That keeps 32 bytes of inline name instead of 8. 34 of the 68 /proc/net
names a network namespace gets are longer than 7 characters.

No functional changes.
