Re: [PATCH 00/19] Do not dentry_unhash in VFS (v3)

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

 



Sage,

this series still leaves a lot of dentry_unhash callsites around,
can you submit some more patches to clan up after it?

 - bfs, sysv, jffs2, jfs, logfs, nilfs2, ubifs and ufs are plain old
   unix filesystems and should not have a problem.
 - reiserfs is a bit special but really shouldn't need it,  also it has
   a local copy of vfs_rmdir that needs the call removed as well.
 - udf also seems to have normal unix semantics
 - same for omfs
 - ecryptfs just passed down requests to the lower fs and thus almost
   certainly doesn't need it.
 - hfs and hfsplus don't care
 - hostsfs doesn't really either

Cced some more maintainers.  In the end each callsite of dentry_unhash
really should have a comment why it's needed or at least why we're
unsure about it.
