Subject: [PATCH 05/12] docs: path-lookup: remove filename_mountpoint
Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2021 15:24:36 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210126072443.33066-6-foxhlchen@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210126072443.33066-1-foxhlchen@gmail.com>
No filename_mountpoint any more
see commit: 161aff1d93abf0e5b5e9dbca88928998c155f677
Without filename_mountpoint and path_mountpoint(), the
numbers should be four & three:
"These four correspond roughly to the three path_*() functions"

This pattern of "try RCU-walk, if that fails try REF-walk" can be
clearly seen in functions like ``filename_lookup()``,

each of which calls ``link_path_walk()``. The ``path_*()`` functions are
called using different mode flags until a mode is found which works.
They are first called with ``LOOKUP_RCU`` set to request "RCU-walk". If
