Hello, when fixing use-after-free bug with fanotify introduced by my previous cleanup patches (the fix is already merged by Linus), I have better understood handling of permission events and found a couple of things that can be further cleaned up. This patch series uses the notify structure itself for processing response to permission event (patch 2/5) thus saving some space and allocation, converts access_mutex to spinlock (patch 3/5) which should be faster, and moves code around copy_event_to_user() to make code more readable (patch 4/5, 5/5). The patches pass LTP fanotify tests. Andrew, can you please take the patches? Changes since v1: - rebased on top of latest fanotify fixes which went to Linus (3.13-rc5) Honza -- 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
