fs: take dcache_lock inside __d_path

2010-10-26T01:26:12Z

All callers take dcache_lock just around the call to __d_path, so take the lock into it in preparation of getting rid of dcache_lock. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Al Viro

seq_file: fix new kernel-doc warnings

2010-03-07T23:48:26Z

Fix kernel-doc notation in new seq-file functions and correct spelling. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Cc: Li Zefan Cc: Alexander Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

seq_file: add RCU versions of new hlist/list iterators (v3)

2010-02-22T23:45:54Z

Many usages of seq_file use RCU protected lists, so non RCU iterators will not work safely. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

seq_file: Add helpers for iteration over a hlist

2010-02-10T19:12:06Z

Some places in kernel need to iterate over a hlist in seq_file, so provide some common helpers. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

vfs: seq_file: add helpers for data filling

2009-09-24T11:47:35Z

Add two helpers that allow access to the seq_file's own buffer, but hide the internal details of seq_files. This allows easier implementation of special purpose filling functions. It also cleans up some existing functions which duplicated the seq_file logic. Make these inline functions in seq_file.h, as suggested by Al.

seq_file: return a negative error code when seq_path_root() fails.

2009-09-24T11:47:29Z

seq_path_root() is returning a return value of successful __d_path() instead of returning a negative value when mangle_path() failed. This is not a bug so far because nobody is using return value of seq_path_root(). Signed-off-by: Tetsuo Handa Cc: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Al Viro

seq_file: add function to write binary data

2009-06-18T20:03:57Z

seq_write() can be used to construct seq_files containing arbitrary data. Required by the gcov-profiling interface to synthesize binary profiling data files.

cpumask: fix seq_bitmap_*() functions.

2009-03-30T11:35:11Z

1) seq_bitmap_list() should take a const. 2) All the seq_bitmap should use cpumask_bits(). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

seq_file: properly cope with pread

2009-02-18T23:37:53Z

Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.
