From 000da85bc9270c18cb83a5609f27acdc2a1bb36a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bharath SM Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2025 16:59:02 +0530 Subject: smb: improve directory cache reuse for readdir operations commit 72dd7961a4bb4fa1fc456169a61dd12e68e50645 upstream. Currently, cached directory contents were not reused across subsequent 'ls' operations because the cache validity check relied on comparing the ctx pointer, which changes with each readdir invocation. As a result, the cached dir entries was not marked as valid and the cache was not utilized for subsequent 'ls' operations. This change uses the file pointer, which remains consistent across all readdir calls for a given directory instance, to associate and validate the cache. As a result, cached directory contents can now be correctly reused, improving performance for repeated directory listings.
