  • 62328a023   iget: stop autofs from using iget() and read_inode() ... Browse Code »

    Stop the autofs filesystem from using iget() and read_inode(). Replace
    autofs_read_inode() with autofs_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
    autofs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
    instead of an inode in the event of an error.

  • fa0334f19   Replace pid_t in autofs with struct pid reference ... Browse Code »

    Make autofs container-friendly by caching struct pid reference rather than
    pid_t and using pid_nr() to retreive a task's pid_t.

    ChangeLog:
    - Fix Eric Biederman's comments - Use find_get_pid() to hold a
    reference to oz_pgrp and release while unmounting; separate out
    changes to autofs and autofs4.
    - Fix Cedric's comments: retain old prototype of parse_options()
    and move necessary change to its caller.

  • 754661f14   [PATCH] mark struct inode_operations const 1 ... Browse Code »

    Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
    moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
    dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
    these shared resources.

  • 0e7d73824   [PATCH] autofs3: Make sure all dentries refs are released before calling kill_anon_super() ... Browse Code »

    Make sure all dentries refs are released before calling kill_anon_super()
    so that the assumption that generic_shutdown_super() can completely destroy
    the dentry tree for there will be no external references holds true.

    What was being done in the put_super() superblock op, is now done in the
    kill_sb() filesystem op instead, prior to calling kill_anon_super().

    The call to shrink_dcache_sb() is removed as it is redundant since
    shrink_dcache_for_umount() will now be called after the cleanup routine.

  • 4b6f5d20b   [PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const ... Browse Code »

    This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
    const. Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

    The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
    shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
    things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
    cache clean)

    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!
