Subject: [PATCH 0/2] VFS: minor improvements to a couple of interfaces
Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2025 14:36:46 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250207034040.3402438-1-neilb@suse.de> (raw)
Hi,
I found these opportunities for simplification as part of my work to
enhance filesystem directory operations to not require an exclusive
lock on the directory.
There are quite a collection of users of these interfaces incluing NFS,
smb/server, bcachefs, devtmpfs, and audit. Hence the long Cc line.
