cover Use struct path in struct nameidata

This is a respin of the patch series Andreas posted last month. It leaves out the restructuring of the intent which will be done at a later point in time.

There are three preparing patches that remove unneeded code IMHO. I haven't got feedback from Takashi since he is on holiday. Please, can somebody else acknowledge the changes?

Comments?

PATCH 1/10 Dont touch fs_struct in drivers

The sound drivers and the pnpbios core test for current->root != NULL. This test seems to be unnecessary since we always have rootfs mounted before initializing the drivers.

Are you sure this is true? I thought we called the usermode helper for hotplug _very_ early in the boot sequence when the device tree starts to get populated.

But things could have changed from the 2.5 days when this was first added, if so, nevermind me :)

thanks,

rootfs is mounted by init_mount_tree, and curret->fs is set up for init there aswell. This is called by mnt_init, which is called by vfs_caches_init, which is called by start_kernel far before we go to rest_init which finally creates a thread to call kernel_init which then calls do_basic_setup which calls do_initcalls to initialize drivers and afterwards runs the initrd/initramfs.

While the actual function names in main.c changed quite a bit we've initialized the initial namespace very early on since the 2.5 days.

PATCH 3/10 Remove path_release_on_umount()

In reply to [email protected]

path_release_on_umount() should only be called from sys_umount(). I merged the function into sys_umount() instead of having in in namei.c.

Re: [patch 05/10] Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}

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

Ok.

#14 lore raw

PATCH 6/10 Introduce path_put()

In reply to [email protected]

* 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()

but the calling convention is rather odd, because the only thing callers might do with this is to dereference and then assign it. Maybe this should just return void to make it more clear what's going on?

All callers to __d_path pass the dentry and vfsmount of a struct path to __d_path. Pass the struct path directly, instead.

Looks good. If you have some sparse time left the dentry and vfsmnt arguments of __d_path and d_path should probably be switched over to a struct path aswell. For about half of the callers that works out easily because they have a struct file, and some need some reshuffling (e.g. /proc/ symlink code or the dcookies that want to store a struct path aswell)

And thinking about it the function should also grow a better name, say print_path. And if you really touch it moving the kerneldoc comment to d_path from __d_path would also be very useful.

Hmm, I don't know. To put both the nd and path is at the moment only used in some error paths. I have another series of patches pending which is using path_put_conditional outside of error paths. So please don't remove it. Besides that the naming completely hides that the conditional release of the vfsmount reference. Besides that I would name it path_put_both() just to make it more "beautiful" wrt the other path_put*() functions.

IMHO introducing another label just to use it here isn't worth the change.

Re: [patch] Combine path_put and path_put_conditional

In reply to Andreas Gruenbacher

Hi Andreas,

Quoted 3 lines · Andreas Gruenbacher

The name path_put_conditional (formerly, dput_path) is a little unclear. Replace (path_put_conditional + path_put) with path_walk_put_both, "put a pair of paths after a path_walk" (see the kerneldoc).

         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

So why not name it path_walk_put_pair() then?

Rationale: "_both" is just counting, "_pair"
means they are related somehow.

Best regards

Ingo Oeser

Any reasons this didn't go into -mm? It's all straight-forward cleanup and it would be a pity not to see it in 2.6.24

This is a respin of the patch series Andreas posted last month. It leaves out the restructuring of the intent which will be done at a later point in time.

There are three preparing patches that remove unneeded code IMHO. I haven't got feedback from Takashi since he is on holiday. Please, can somebody else acknowledge the changes?

Comments?
Jan
