<id>urn:sha1:e36cb0b89ce20b4f8786a57e8a6bc8476f577650</id>
<content type='text'>
Convert the following where appropriate:

 (1) S_ISLNK(dentry-&gt;d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).

 (2) S_ISREG(dentry-&gt;d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).

 (3) S_ISDIR(dentry-&gt;d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry).  This is actually more
     complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
     d_can_lookup() instead.  The difference is whether the directory in
     question is a real dir with a -&gt;lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
     a -&gt;d_automount op.

In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry-&gt;d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).

Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer.  In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.

However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.

There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE.  Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

The following perl+coccinelle script was used:

use strict;

my @callers;
open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*-&gt;d_inode\' |') ||
    die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers";
@callers = &lt;$fd&gt;;
close($fd);
unless (@callers) {
    print "No matches\n";
    exit(0);
}

my @cocci = (
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISLNK(E-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_symlink(E)',
    '',
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISDIR(E-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_dir(E)',
    '',
    '@@',
    'expression E;',
    '@@',
    '',
    '- S_ISREG(E-&gt;d_inode-&gt;i_mode)',
    '+ d_is_reg(E)' );

my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci";
open($fd, "&gt;$coccifile") || die $coccifile;
print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci);
close($fd);

foreach my $file (@callers) {
    chomp $file;
    print "Processing ", $file, "\n";
    system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 ||
	die "spatch failed";
}

<title>autofs4: d_manage() should return -EISDIR when appropriate in rcu-walk mode.</title>

If rcu-walk mode we don't *have* to return -EISDIR for non-mount-traps
as we will simply drop into REF-walk and handling DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT
dentrys the slow way.  But it is better if we do when possible.

In 'oz_mode', use the same condition as ref-walk: if not a mountpoint,
then it must be -EISDIR.

In regular mode there are most tests needed.  Most of them can be
performed without taking any spinlocks.  If we find a directory that
isn't obviously empty, and isn't mounted on, we need to call
'simple_empty()' which does take a spinlock.  If this turned out to hurt
performance, some other approach could be found to signal when a
directory is known to be empty.

<title>autofs4: allow RCU-walk to walk through autofs4</title>

This series teaches autofs about RCU-walk so that we don't drop straight
into REF-walk when we hit an autofs directory, and so that we avoid
spinlocks as much as possible when performing an RCU-walk.

This is needed so that the benefits of the recent NFS support for
RCU-walk are fully available when NFS filesystems are automounted.

Patches have been carefully reviewed and tested both with test suites
and in production - thanks a lot to Ian Kent for his support there.

This patch (of 6):

Any attempt to look up a pathname that passes though an autofs4 mount is
currently forced out of RCU-walk into REF-walk.

This can significantly hurt performance of many-thread work loads on
many-core systems, especially if the automounted filesystem supports
RCU-walk but doesn't get to benefit from it.

So if autofs4_d_manage is called with rcu_walk set, only fail with -ECHILD
if it is necessary to wait longer than a spinlock.

If the expiring_list is empty, we can avoid a costly spinlock in the
rcu-walk path through autofs4_d_manage (once the rest of the path
becomes rcu-walk friendly).

autofs needs to be able to see private data dentry flags for its dentrys
that are being created but not yet hashed and for its dentrys that have
been rmdir()ed but not yet freed.  It needs to do this so it can block
processes in these states until a status has been returned to indicate
the given operation is complete.

It does this by keeping two lists, active and expring, of dentrys in
this state and uses -&gt;d_release() to keep them stable while it checks
the reference count to determine if they should be used.

But with the recent lockref changes dentrys being freed sometimes don't
transition to a reference count of 0 before being freed so autofs can
occassionally use a dentry that is invalid which can lead to a panic.
