Subject: [PATCH 06/27] fs: port i_{g,u}id_{needs_}update() to const mnt_idmap
Date: Tue, 01 Sep 2026 14:14:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901-work-idmap-const-v1-6-54ccd48e100b@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901-work-idmap-const-v1-0-54ccd48e100b@kernel.org>
Convert to const struct mnt_idmap.
A mount's idmapping is immutable. The only thing that is allowed to be
modified afterwards is the reference count and that is hidden behind
mnt_idmap_get() and mnt_idmap_put(). Everything else only ever reads
from the idmapping. This is the same model that struct cred uses and the
idmapping is also rather sensitive.
So make the idmap argument const wherever we can. The conversion is done
from the bottom up so callers can continue to pass a non-const pointer
to a const parameter until the conversion is finished.
No functional changes.
