Also the low-level name duplication code could be factored out a little
more ala:
/*
* If a case-insensitive match, allocate a buffer and copy the actual
* name into the buffer. Return it via args->value.
*/
void xfs_copy_ci_name(struct xfs_da_args *args, const char *name, int namelen)
{
if (args->return_ci_name && args->cmpresult == XFS_CMP_CASE) {
args->valuelen = namelen;
args->value = kmemdup(name, namelen, GFP_NOFS);
/* error handled in higher layers */
}
}
Instead of adding args->return_ci_name it might make sense to just
replace the last four chars there with an unsigned short lookup_flags
and just set bits in it.
