Hi all,
I was auditing the code base when I noticed that the xfs_name_dotdot
variable is both global and mutable. In theory, someone could change
the contents of that variable (either through misuse or by exploiting a
kernel bug) which would then break the directory code, so let's shut
down that attack surface by making it const.
If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just
pull from my git trees, which are linked below.
This is an extraordinary way to destroy everything. Enjoy!
Comments and questions are, as always, welcome.

Various directory functions do not modify their @name parameter,
so mark it const to make that clear. This will enable us to mark
the global xfs_name_dotdot variable as const to prevent mischief.

The symbol xfs_name_dotdot is a global variable that the xfs codebase
uses here and there to look up directory dotdot entries. Currently it's
a non-const variable, which means that it's a mutable global variable.
So far nobody's abused this to cause problems, but let's use the
compiler to enforce that.

Why can't xfs_dir_lookup() be defined as a const xname for the input
name? All it does is extract the contents into the da_args fields,
and pass it to xfs_dir_hashname() which you converted to const in
the previous patch.
Or does the compiler then complain at all the other callsites that
you're passing non-const stuff to const function parameters? i.e. am
I just pulling on another dangling end of the ball of string at this
point?

This only calls xfs_dir_lookup() with name, so if xfs_dir_lookup()
can have a const name, so can xfs_lookup()....

The metadata directory patchset changes xfs_dir_lookup to return the
ftype in the dirent so that it can bail early if the dirent doesn't
point to the filetype that we want.
I wouldn't be /that/ sad to remove that bit of functionality in favor of
constifying the name parameter to xfs_dir_lookup.
Thinking about this more, I think the metadir code could implement its
own lookup dispatch function that /does/ return the dirent ftype, since
the sf/block/node/leaf functions all live in libxfs anyway.

Nope, just djwong-dev blindness. :(
