[PATCH 22/24] sysfs: Make sysfs_rename_link atomic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Use the existing sysfs_rename to make sysfs_rename_link an atomic
operation that does less work.  While I am at add additional sanity
checking to ensure it is a symlink I am renaming.
