Change calling conventions for filldir_t

2022-08-17T21:25:04+00:00

filldir_t instances (directory iterators callbacks) used to return 0 for "OK, keep going" or -E... for "stop". Note that it's *NOT* how the error values are reported - the rules for those are callback-dependent and ->iterate{,_shared}() instances only care about zero vs. non-zero (look at emit_dir() and friends). So let's just return bool ("should we keep going?") - it's less confusing that way. The choice between "true means keep going" and "true means stop" is bikesheddable; we have two groups of callbacks - do something for everything in directory, until we run into problem and find an entry in directory and do something to it. The former tended to use 0/-E... conventions - -E on failure. The latter tended to use 0/1, 1 being "stop, we are done". The callers treated anything non-zero as "stop", ignoring which non-zero value did they get. "true means stop" would be more natural for the second group; "true means keep going" - for the first one. I tried both variants and the things like if allocation failed something = -ENOMEM; return true; just looked unnatural and asking for trouble.

gfs2: Minor gfs2_lookup_by_inum cleanup

2020-06-05T18:19:21+00:00

Use a zero no_formal_ino instead of a NULL pointer to indicate that any inode generation number will qualify: a valid inode never has a zero no_formal_ino. Signed-off-by: Andreas Gruenbacher

gfs2: Get rid of gfs2_ilookup

2016-06-27T14:47:08+00:00

Now that gfs2_lookup_by_inum only takes the inode glock for new inodes (and not for cached inodes anymore), there no longer is a need to optimize the cached-inode case in gfs2_get_dentry or delete_work_func, and gfs2_ilookup can be removed. In addition, gfs2_get_dentry wasn't checking the GFS2_DIF_SYSTEM flag in i_diskflags in the gfs2_ilookup case (see gfs2_lookup_by_inum); this inconsistency goes away as well.

GFS2: Don't filter out I_FREEING inodes anymore

2016-03-15T14:46:45+00:00

This patch basically reverts a very old patch from 2008, 7a9f53b3c1875bef22ad4588e818bc046ef183da, with the title "Alternate gfs2_iget to avoid looking up inodes being freed". The original patch was designed to avoid a deadlock caused by lock ordering with try_rgrp_unlink. The patch forced the function to not find inodes that were being removed by VFS. The problem is, that made it impossible for nodes to delete their own unlinked dinodes after a certain point in time, because the inode needed was not found by this filtering process. There is no longer a need for the patch, since function try_rgrp_unlink no longer locks the inode: All it does is queue the glock onto the delete work_queue, so there should be no more deadlock.
