- inode_diet-replace-inodeugeneric_ip-with-inodei_private-reiser4.patch removed from -mm tree

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patch titled
     inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     inode_diet-replace-inodeugeneric_ip-with-inodei_private-reiser4.patch

This patch was dropped because it was folded into reiser4.patch

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private
From: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@xxxxxxx>

The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer.  Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.  This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.
