Your ->lookup() rejects dentries with names longer than PRAM_NAME_LEN with an error, so they won't reach this function at all. > +int pram_remove_link(struct inode *inode) Umm... That's called on rename (for old one) *and* inode eviction when link count goes to zero. What's the point of keeping unlinked ones (unlink/rmdir/ rename victims) on those lists? Sure, you skip them on lookups, but why delay link removal until eviction? You pay for that with extra locking, BTW - if not for that, you wouldn't need your i_link_mutex at all. > + pi = pram_get_inode(sb, inode->i_ino); > + > + switch ((u32)file->f_pos) { > + case 0: > + ret = dir_emit_dot(file, ctx); > + ctx->pos = 1; > + return ret; Really? So on the first call of ->iterate() you just generate one entry and don't even try to produce more? And it looks like the rest is no nicer... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
