[PATCH v3 0/6] VFS: more prep for change to directory locking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a re-revised selection of cleanups and API renaming which continues
my work to centralise locking of create/remove/rename operations.

I've dropped the simple_end_creating etc changes which conflict with some of Al's work,
I've added a note to the first patch explaining that the linked list
does not need locking, and I've added a patch to rename start_creating() in debugfs
so the name can be used elsewhere in later patches.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
