PATCH 1/1 [Cluster-devel] [gfs2 patches in vfs.git]

This stuff is around ->atomic_open() and my main goal here is to eliminate the cases when d_splice_alias() is used on a hashed dentry. Patches in question sit in vfs.git#for-gfs2, and that branch isn't going to be rebased; I'd prefer if it was pulled instead of having them applied manually.

Shortlog:
Al Viro (3):
gfs2: bugger off early if O_CREAT open finds a directory gfs2_create_inode(): don't bother with d_splice_alias() gfs2_atomic_open(): simplify the use of finish_no_open()

Hm. Seems wrong that it should return 0 if the dirent exists (mkdir of a directory that already exists) but it looks like it already behaves that way. So I guess so. It may warrant further investigation.

It doesn't. Note that !S_ISREG(mode) || excl in there - *anything* other than ->create() will treat existing entries with the same name as EEXIST. The only case when we can possibly get into that if (!IS_ERR(inode)) is ->create() hitting an existing file. And with this change it narrows to "->create() hitting an existing non-directory". That allows the next patch to use d_instantiate() instead of d_splice_alias() - for non-directories it's the same thing, since dentry is already hashed here and we don't need to avoid multiple aliases. Which kills one of the two places in the tree where d_splice_alias() is called for an already hashed dentry (another is d_add_ci() and that call also goes down - see vfs.git#for-next for that one).

Okay, thanks for clearing that up.

PATCH 2/3 gfs2_create_inode(): don't bother with d_splice_alias()

In reply to Al Viro

dentry is always hashed and negative, inode - non-error, non-NULL and non-directory. In such conditions d_splice_alias() is equivalent to "d_instantiate(dentry, inode) and return NULL", which simplifies the downstream code and is consistent with the "have to create a new object" case.

PATCH 3/3 gfs2_atomic_open(): simplify the use of finish_no_open()

In reply to Al Viro

In ->atomic_open(inode, dentry, file, opened) calling finish_no_open(file, NULL) is equivalent to dget(dentry); return finish_no_open(file, dentry);

No need to open-code that...
