[PATCH 4/8] cachefiles: Clear invalid cache data in advance

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

 



In the current on-demand loading scenario, when umount is called, the
cachefiles_commit_tmpfile() is invoked. When checking the inode
corresponding to object->file is inconsistent with the dentry,
cachefiles_unlink() is called to perform cleanup to prevent invalid data
from occupying space.

The above operation does not apply to the first mount, because the cache
dentry generated by the first mount must be negative. Moreover, there is no
need to clear it during the first umount because this part of the data may
be reusable in the future. But the problem is that, the clean operation can
currently only be called through cachefiles_withdraw_cookie(), in other
words the redundant data does not cleaned until the second umount. This
means that during the second mount, the old cache data generated from the
first mount still occupies space. So if the user does not manually clean up
the previous cache before the next mount, it may return insufficient space
during the second mount phase.

This patch adds an additional cleanup process in the cachefiles_open_file()
function. When the auxdata check fails, the remaining old cache data is no
longer needed, the file and dentry corresponding to the object are also
put. As there is no need to clear it until umount, we can directly clear it
during the mount process.
