[readdir] introduce ->iterate(), ctx->pos, dir_emit()

2013-06-29T08:46:47+00:00

New method - ->iterate(file, ctx).  That's the replacement for ->readdir();
it takes callback from ctx->actor, uses ctx->pos instead of file->f_pos and
calls dir_emit(ctx, ...) instead of filldir(data, ...).  It does *not*
update file->f_pos (or look at it, for that matter); iterate_dir() does the
update.

Note that dir_emit() takes the offset from ctx->pos (and eventually
filldir_t will lose that argument).

[readdir] introduce iterate_dir() and dir_context

2013-06-29T08:46:46+00:00

iterate_dir(): new helper, replacing vfs_readdir().

struct dir_context: contains the readdir callback (and will get more stuff
in it), embedded into whatever data that callback wants to deal with;
eventually, we'll be passing it to ->readdir() replacement instead of
(data,filldir) pair.

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.

vfs: fix warning: 'dirent' is used uninitialized in this function

2010-08-10T03:45:05+00:00

Using:

	gcc (GCC) 4.5.0 20100610 (prerelease)

The following warnings appear:

	fs/readdir.c: In function `filldir64':
	fs/readdir.c:240:15: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function
	fs/readdir.c: In function `filldir':
	fs/readdir.c:155:15: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function
	fs/compat.c: In function `compat_filldir64':
	fs/compat.c:1071:11: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function
	fs/compat.c: In function `compat_filldir':
	fs/compat.c:984:15: warning: `dirent' is used uninitialized in this function

The warnings are related to the use of the NAME_OFFSET() macro.  Luckily,
it appears as though the standard offsetof() macro is what is being
implemented by NAME_OFFSET(), thus we can fix the warning and use a more
standard code construct at the same time.
