This started out as an attempt to add mkdirat support to io_uring which is heavily based on renameat() / unlinkat() support. During the review process more operations were added (linkat, symlinkat, mknodat) mainly to keep things uniform internally (in namei.c), and with things changed in namei.c adding support for these operations to io_uring is trivial, so that was done too. See https://lore.kernel.org/io-uring/20210514145259.wtl4xcsp52woi6ab@wittgenstein/ The first patch is preparation with no functional changes, makes do_mkdirat accept struct filename pointer rather than the user string. The second one leverages that to implement mkdirat in io_uring. 3-6 just convert other similar do_* functions in namei.c to accept struct filename, for uniformity with do_mkdirat, do_renameat and do_unlinkat. No functional changes there. 7 changes do_* helpers in namei.c to return ints rather than some of them returning ints and some longs. 8-10 add symlinkat, linkat and mknodat support to io_uring (correspondingly). Based on for-5.14/io_uring. v5: - rebase - add symlinkat, linkat and mknodat support to io_uring v4: - update do_mknodat, do_symlinkat and do_linkat to accept struct filename for uniformity with do_mkdirat, do_renameat and do_unlinkat; v3: - rebase; v2: - do not mess with struct filename's refcount in do_mkdirat, instead add and use __filename_create() that does not drop the name on success; Dmitry Kadashev (10): fs: make do_mkdirat() take struct filename io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_MKDIRAT fs: make do_mknodat() take struct filename fs: make do_symlinkat() take struct filename namei: add getname_uflags() fs: make do_linkat() take struct filename fs: update do_*() helpers to return ints io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_SYMLINKAT io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_LINKAT io_uring: add support for IORING_OP_MKNODAT fs/exec.c | 8 +- fs/internal.h | 10 +- fs/io_uring.c | 240 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ fs/namei.c | 137 ++++++++++++------- include/linux/fs.h | 1 + include/uapi/linux/io_uring.h | 6 + 6 files changed, 349 insertions(+), 53 deletions(-) -- 2.30.2
