In both cases, the dcache is wrong and the dentry should be dropped and reinstantiated to point to a new inode. An ESTALE return is the trigger for that to occur. An ENOENT return is going to mean a stat() failure in your testcase, I think. So I think you want to return ESTALE in both cases. That said, please do test it and ensure that it does the right thing. -- Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
