Now that I've seen the code, I really don't see any advantage to driving the kqid into XFS quota subsystem. (i.e the rest of this patch and the subsequent follow up patches that drive it further inward). I did say previously: >> From there, targetted patches can drive the kernel structures >> inward from the entry points where it makes sense to do so (e.g. >> common places that the quota entry points call that take a >> type/id pair). The last thing that should happen is internal >> structures be converted from type/id pairs to the kernel types if >> it makes sense to do so and it makes the code simpler and easier >> to read.... But seeing the result, IMO, it doesn't actually improve the code (it's neither simpler nor easier to read), and it doesn't actually add any functionality. It makes the code strange and different and somewhat inconsistent and litters id/namespace conversions all over the place, so i don't think these cahgnes are necessary. Hence I'd say just do absolute minimum needed for the is_superquota() checks to work and leave all the kqid -> xfs_dqid_t+type conversion at the boundary of the quota subsystem where it already is....
