[PATCH] knfsd: Unexport cache_fresh and fix a small race

2006-03-27T16:44:43+00:00

Cache_fresh is now only used in cache.c, so unexport it.

Part of cache_fresh (setting CACHE_VALID) should really be done under the
lock, while part (calling cache_revisit_request etc) must be done outside the
lock.  So we split it up appropriately.

[PATCH] knfsd: Create cache_lookup function instead of using a macro to declare one

2006-03-27T16:44:41+00:00

The C++-like 'template' approach proves to be too ugly and hard to work with.

The old 'template' won't go away until all users are updated.

[PATCH] knfsd: Get rid of 'inplace' sunrpc caches

2006-03-27T16:44:41+00:00

These were an unnecessary wart.  Also only have one 'DefineSimpleCache..'
instead of two.

[PATCH] sunrpc: cache_register can use wrong module reference

2005-09-07T23:57:25+00:00

When registering an RPC cache, cache_register() always sets the owner as the
sunrpc module.  However, there are RPC caches owned by other modules.  With
the incorrect owner setting, the real owning module can be removed potentially
with an open reference to the cache from userspace.

For example, if one were to stop the nfs server and unmount the nfsd
filesystem, the nfsd module could be removed eventhough rpc.idmapd had
references to the idtoname and nametoid caches (i.e.
/proc/net/rpc/nfs4./channel is still open).  This resulted in a
system panic on one of our machines when attempting to restart the nfs
services after reloading the nfsd module.

The following patch adds a 'struct module *owner' field in struct
cache_detail.  The owner is further assigned to the struct proc_dir_entry
in cache_register() so that the module cannot be unloaded while user-space
daemons have an open reference on the associated file under /proc.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
