Even "!= 0" would be better than "== 1". I think test_bit() is declared as a bool, but it is hard to be certain. > + nfsd_file_lru_add(nf); > + else if (refcount_read(&nf->nf_ref) == 2) > + nfsd_file_unhash_and_put(nf); Tests on the value of a refcount are almost always racy. I suspect there is an implication that as NFSD_FILE_GC is not set, this *must* be hashed which implies there is guaranteed to be a refcount from the hashtable. So this is really a test to see if the pre-biased refcount is one. The safe way to test if a refcount is 1 is dec_and_test. i.e. linkage from the hash table should not count as a reference (in the not-GC case). Lookup in the hash table should fail if the found entry cannot achieve an inc_not_zero. When dec_and_test says the refcount is zero, we remove from the hash table (certain that no new references will be taken). > + > if (test_bit(NFSD_FILE_HASHED, &nf->nf_flags) == 0) { > nfsd_file_flush(nf); > nfsd_file_put_noref(nf); This seems weird. If the file was unhashed above (because nf_ref was 2), it would now not be flushed. Why don't we want it to be flushed in that case? > - } else if (nf->nf_file) { > + } else if (nf->nf_file && test_bit(NFSD_FILE_GC, &nf->nf_flags) == 1) { > nfsd_file_put_noref(nf); > nfsd_file_schedule_laundrette(); > } else > @@ -1017,12 +1033,14 @@ nfsd_file_is_cached(struct inode *inode) > > static __be32 > nfsd_file_do_acquire(struct svc_rqst *rqstp, struct svc_fh *fhp, > - unsigned int may_flags, struct nfsd_file **pnf, bool open) > + unsigned int may_flags, struct nfsd_file **pnf, > + bool open, int want_gc) I too would prefer "bool" for all intstance of gc and want_gc.
