I am sorry. I didn't change anything in the dentry structure in
patch 3. So putting patches 4-11 on top of it won't break the build.
*gyah*... I'd missed the !@#!# macro you've added there. Could you
explain the reasons for using it at all? Not to mention anything
else, you've missed
# define d_refcount(d) ((d)->d_count)
in Lustre. What's the point of your macro (d_refcount -> d_count), anyway?
All references outside of fs/namei.c, fs/dcache.c, include/linux/dcache.h
should be via d_count(dentry) anyway...
I am sorry that I am still using the latest 3.10 bits that I pull in
last week as the basis for my patchset. I want to get my changes
stabilized before looking at the latest bits. So I did missed the latest
3.11 bits that are merged this week including the Lustre change that you
mentioned. I will pull in the latest bit and rebase my patch on top of
it. I guess I also need to make changes to that d_refcount() macro as
well as codes that reference it. Are you aware of other upcoming patches
that may conflict with my patch?
The d_refcount macro in patch 3 is to make the name change first so that
I don't need to change them in the last patch. This is to make the last
patch easier to review by moving those irrelevant name changes away from it.
