- iget-stop-unionfs-from-using-iget-and-read_inode.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     iget: stop unionfs from using iget() and read_inode()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     iget-stop-unionfs-from-using-iget-and-read_inode.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: iget: stop unionfs from using iget() and read_inode()
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>

Stop the UnionFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
unionfs_read_inode() with unionfs_iget(), and call that instead of iget(). 
unionfs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error
code instead of an inode in the event of an error.

unionfs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.
