  • 6de940025   Fix JFFS2 sync silent failure ... Browse Code »

    JFFS2 does not appear to set s_bdi anywhere. And as of 32a88aa1,
    __sync_filesystem() will return 0 if s_bdi is not set. As a result,
    sync_fs() is never called for jffs2 and whatever remains in the wbuf
    will not make it to the device.

    Fix that up by assigning the mtd bdi.

  • a3ec947c8   vfs: simple_set_mnt() should return void ... Browse Code »

    simple_set_mnt() is defined as returning 'int' but always returns 0.
    Callers assume simple_set_mnt() never fails and don't properly cleanup if
    it were to _ever_ fail. For instance, get_sb_single() and get_sb_nodev()
    should:

    up_write(sb->s_unmount);
    deactivate_super(sb);

    if simple_set_mnt() fails.

    Since simple_set_mnt() never fails, would be cleaner if it did not
    return anything.

  • f1136d022   [MTD] Fix !CONFIG_BLOCK compile for mtdsuper.c ... Browse Code »

    As reported by Adrian Bunk, commit d5686b444ff3f72808d2b3fbd58672a86cdf38e7
    (switch mtd and dm-table to lookup_bdev()) causes the following compile
    error with CONFIG_BLOCK=n:

    CC drivers/mtd/mtdsuper.o
    drivers/mtd/mtdsuper.c: In function `get_sb_mtd':
    drivers/mtd/mtdsuper.c:184: error: implicit declaration of function 'lookup_bdev'
    drivers/mtd/mtdsuper.c:184: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
    drivers/mtd/mtdsuper.c:197: error: implicit declaration of function 'bdput'
    make[3]: *** [drivers/mtd/mtdsuper.o] Error 1

    Fix it by putting the block device lookup inside #ifdef CONFIG_BLOCK

  • 1d957f9bf   Introduce path_put() ... Browse Code »

    * Add path_put() functions for releasing a reference to the dentry and
    vfsmount of a struct path in the right order

    * Switch from path_release(nd) to path_put(&nd->path)

    * Rename dput_path() to path_put_conditional()

  • 4ac913785   Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt} ... Browse Code »

    This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
    reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
    that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

    Together with the other patches of this series
    - it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
    pairs
    - it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
    struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
    - it reduces the overall code size:

    without patch series:
    text data bss dec hex filename
    5321639 858418 715768 6895825 6938d1 vmlinux

    with patch series:
    text data bss dec hex filename
    5320026 858418 715768 6894212 693284 vmlinux

    This patch:

    Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.
