fs/bad_inode.c: is_bad_inode can be boolean

2015-12-07T02:17:14+00:00

This patch makes is_bad_inode return bool to improve
readability due to this particular function only using either
one or zero as its return value.

No functional change.

don't bother with most of the bad_file_ops methods

2015-02-20T09:03:58+00:00

Only ->open() should be there (always failing, of course).  We never
replace ->f_op of an already opened struct file, so there's no way
for any of those methods to be called.

bad_inode: add ->rename2()

2014-08-07T18:40:09+00:00

so we return -EIO instead of -EINVAL.

lseek: the "whence" argument is called "whence"

2012-12-18T01:15:12+00:00

But the kernel decided to call it "origin" instead.  Fix most of the
sites.

don't pass nameidata to ->create()

2012-07-14T12:34:47+00:00

boolean "does it have to be exclusive?" flag is passed instead;
Local filesystem should just ignore it - the object is guaranteed
not to be there yet.

stop passing nameidata to ->lookup()

2012-07-14T12:34:32+00:00

Just the flags; only NFS cares even about that, but there are
legitimate uses for such argument.  And getting rid of that
completely would require splitting ->lookup() into a couple
of methods (at least), so let's leave that alone for now...

mm/fs: remove truncate_range

2012-05-29T23:22:23+00:00

Remove vmtruncate_range(), and remove the truncate_range method from
struct inode_operations: only tmpfs ever supported it, and tmpfs has now
converted over to using the fallocate method of file_operations.

Update Documentation accordingly, adding (setlease and) fallocate lines.
And while we're in mm.h, remove duplicate declarations of shmem_lock() and
shmem_file_setup(): everyone is now using the ones in shmem_fs.h.

fs: reduce the use of module.h wherever possible

2012-02-29T00:31:58+00:00

For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map
them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even
using those, then just delete the include.  Fix up any implicit
include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along
the way.
