Use the right predicate in ->atomic_open() instances

2016-07-05T20:02:23+00:00

->atomic_open() can be given an in-lookup dentry *or* a negative one
found in dcache.  Use d_in_lookup() to tell one from another, rather
than d_unhashed().

fuse: serialize dirops by default

2016-06-30T11:10:49+00:00

Negotiate with userspace filesystems whether they support parallel readdir
and lookup.  Disable parallelism by default for fear of breaking fuse
filesystems.

switch ->setxattr() to passing dentry and inode separately

2016-05-28T00:09:16+00:00

smack ->d_instantiate() uses ->setxattr(), so to be able to call it before
we'd hashed the new dentry and attached it to inode, we need ->setxattr()
instances getting the inode as an explicit argument rather than obtaining
it from dentry.

Similar change for ->getxattr() had been done in commit ce23e64.  Unlike
->getxattr() (which is used by both selinux and smack instances of
->d_instantiate()) ->setxattr() is used only by smack one and unfortunately
it got missed back then.

fuse: switch to ->iterate_shared()

Switch dcache pre-seeding on readdir to d_alloc_parallel();
nothing else is needed.

->getxattr(): pass dentry and inode as separate arguments

wrappers for ->i_mutex access

2016-01-22T23:04:28+00:00

parallel to mutex_{lock,unlock,trylock,is_locked,lock_nested},
inode_foo(inode) being mutex_foo(&inode->i_mutex).

Please, use those for access to ->i_mutex; over the coming cycle
->i_mutex will become rwsem, with ->lookup() done with it held
only shared.

replace ->follow_link() with new method that could stay in RCU mode

2015-12-09T03:41:54+00:00

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link().  The differences
are:
	* inode and dentry are passed separately
	* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
	* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.

It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted.  Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode.  That'll change
in the next commits.
