ncpfs: get rid of d_validate() nonsense

2015-01-26T04:16:26+00:00

What we want is to have non-counting references to children in
pagecache of parent directory, and avoid picking them after a child
has been freed.  Fine, so let's just have ->d_prune() clear
parent's inode "has directory contents in page cache" flag.
That way we don't need ->d_fsdata for storing offsets, so we can
use it as a quick and dirty "is it referenced from page cache"
flag.

dcache_lock no longer protects anything. remove it.

fs: dcache scale subdirs

2011-01-07T06:50:21+00:00

Protect d_subdirs and d_child with d_lock, except in filesystems that aren't
using dcache_lock for these anyway (eg. using i_mutex).

Note: if we change the locking rule in future so that ->d_child protection is
provided only with ->d_parent->d_lock, it may allow us to reduce some locking.
But it would be an exception to an otherwise regular locking scheme, so we'd
have to see some good results. Probably not worthwhile.

fs: change d_compare for rcu-walk

2011-01-07T06:50:19+00:00

Change d_compare so it may be called from lock-free RCU lookups. This
does put significant restrictions on what may be done from the callback,
however there don't seem to have been any problems with in-tree fses.
If some strange use case pops up that _really_ cannot cope with the
rcu-walk rules, we can just add new rcu-unaware callbacks, which would
cause name lookup to drop out of rcu-walk mode.

For in-tree filesystems, this is just a mechanical change.

BKL: Remove BKL from ncpfs

2010-10-04T19:10:52+00:00

Dozen of changes in ncpfs to provide some locking other than BKL.

In readdir cache unlock and mark complete first page as last operation,
so it can be used for synchronization, as code intended.

When updating dentry name on case insensitive filesystems do at least
some basic locking...

Hold i_mutex when updating inode fields.

Push some ncp_conn_is_valid down to ncp_request.  Connection can become
invalid at any moment, and fewer error code paths to test the better.

Use i_size_{read,write} to modify file size.

Set inode's backing_dev_info as ncpfs has its own special bdi.

In ioctl unbreak ioctls invoked on filesystem mounted 'ro' - tests are
for inode writeable or owner match, but were turned to filesystem
writeable and inode writeable or owner match.  Also collect all permission
checks in single place.

Add some locking, and remove comments saying that it would be cool to
add some locks to the code.

Constify some pointers.
