The patch "pnfsd: fix test in nfsd4_find_pnfs_dlm_device" was obviously correct; before that patch, nfsd4_find_pnfs_dlm_device() returned the first device which did *not* match, instead of the first device which
did.

Other callers previous worked because they passed int the incorrect
name, and because we never had more than one element in the list, so
returning the first non-match would return the right thing.

But then I don't know what point the "/dev/" is serving here.  May as
well just change the interface so that what's passed in is just the name ("sdc2" or whatever)--no use pretending this is some kind of path name
if it's not really.

However, I don't know whether passing in the disk name is really a
sensible way to refer to a filesystem in a user<->kernel api.


up to you...  I think the whole scheme is currently GFS2 specific

No, it's DLM specific, with GFS2 being the only current user.

and it assumes the device exists symmetrically on /dev/... on all
DSs.

No. This identifies the MDS exported DLM pNFS file system, and has nothing to do with the local DS file system.



The /dev prefix seems to be completely redundant.
It makes more sense to get rid of it in the user->kernel
API as passed down to nfsd4_set_pnfs_dlm_device() rather than
adding it here.

Sure.

--b.


But now we need to fix those callers.
