Subject: [PATCH 08/19] VFS: introduce lookup_and_lock() and friends
Date: Thu, 6 Feb 2025 16:42:45 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250206054504.2950516-9-neilb@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250206054504.2950516-1-neilb@suse.de>
lookup_and_lock() combines locking the directory and performing a lookup
prior to a change to the directory.
Abstracting this prepares for changing the locking requirements.
done_lookup_and_lock() provides the inverse of putting the dentry and
unlocking.
For "silly_rename" we will need to lookup_and_lock() in a directory that
is already locked. For this purpose we add LOOKUP_PARENT_LOCKED.
Like lookup_len_qstr(), lookup_and_lock() returns -ENOENT if
LOOKUP_CREATE was NOT given and the name cannot be found,, and returns
-EEXIST if LOOKUP_EXCL WAS given and the name CAN be found.
These functions replace all uses of lookup_one_qstr() in namei.c
except for those used for rename.
The name might seem backwards as the lock happens before the lookup.
A future patch will change this so that only a shared lock is taken
before the lookup, and an exclusive lock on the dentry is taken after a
successful lookup. So the order "lookup" then "lock" will make sense.
This functionality is exported as lookup_and_lock_one() which takes a
name and len rather than a qstr.
