From 5bdcd5f5331a276a3ddf1fba8605986d0d15298a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ajay Kaher Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2023 23:50:50 +0530 Subject: eventfs: Implement removal of meta data from eventfs When events are removed from tracefs, the eventfs must be aware of this. The eventfs_remove() removes the meta data from eventfs so that it will no longer create the files associated with that event. When an instance is removed from tracefs, eventfs_remove_events_dir() will remove and clean up the entire "events" directory. The helper function eventfs_remove_rec() is used to clean up and free the associated data from eventfs for both of the added functions. SRCU is used to protect the lists of meta data stored in the eventfs. The eventfs_mutex is used to protect the content of the items in the list. As lookups may be happening as deletions of events are made, the freeing of dentry/inodes and relative information is done after the SRCU grace period has passed.
