3.16.61-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx> commit c3f4688a08fd86f1bf8e055724c84b7a40a09733 upstream. This function sets req->r_locked_dir which is supposed to indicate to ceph_fill_trace that the parent's i_rwsem is locked for write. Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that the dir will be locked when d_revalidate is called, so we really don't want ceph_fill_trace to do any dcache manipulation from this context. Clear req->r_locked_dir since it's clearly not safe to do that. What we really want to know with d_revalidate is whether the dentry still points to the same inode. ceph_fill_trace installs a pointer to the inode in req->r_target_inode, so we can just compare that to d_inode(dentry) to see if it's the same one after the lookup. Also, since we aren't generally interested in the parent here, we can switch to using a GETATTR to hint that to the MDS, which also means that we only need to reserve one cap. Finally, just remove the d_unhashed check. That's really outside the purview of a filesystem's d_revalidate. If the thing became unhashed while we're checking it, then that's up to the VFS to handle anyway.
