Merge tag 'eventfs-v6.8-2' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull eventfs updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove "lookup" parameter of create_dir_dentry() and
create_file_dentry(). These functions were called by lookup and the
readdir logic, where readdir needed it to up the ref count of the
dentry but the lookup did not. A "lookup" parameter was passed in to
tell it what to do, but this complicated the code. It is better to
just always up the ref count and require the caller to decrement it,
even for lookup.
- Modify the .iterate_shared callback to not use the dcache_readdir()
logic and just handle what gets displayed by that one function. This
removes the need for eventfs to hijack the file->private_data from
the dcache_readdir() "cursor" pointer, and makes the code a bit more
sane
- Use the root and instance inodes for default ownership. Instead of
walking the dentry tree and updating each dentry gid, use the
getattr(), setattr() and permission() callbacks to set the ownership
and permissions using the root or instance as the default
- Some other optimizations with the eventfs iterate_shared logic
- Hard-code the inodes for eventfs to the same number for files, and
the same number for directories
- Have getdent() not create dentries/inodes in iterate_shared() as now
it has hard-coded inode numbers
- Use kcalloc() instead of kzalloc() on a list of elements
- Fix seq_buf warning and make static work properly.
