[PATCH 0/2] commit_metadata export operation v6

[Ben Myers]

Hey Bruce,

Here is the latest version of the knfsd sync changes.  I have addressed the
suggestions provided by Christoph, Trond, Dave, and Alex.

In this latest version I have fixed up the few nits in the nfsd patch that
Christoph pointed out yesterday.  I also have simplified the xfs patch as
suggested by Dave.

Thanks,
	Ben

[PATCH 1/2] commit_metadata export operation replacing nfsd_sync_dir

[Ben Myers]

- Add commit_metadata export_operation to allow the underlying filesystem to
decide how to commit an inode most efficiently.

- Usage of nfsd_sync_dir and write_inode_now has been replaced with the
commit_metadata function that takes a svc_fh.

- The commit_metadata function calls the commit_metadata export_op if it's
there, or else falls back to sync_inode instead of fsync and write_inode_now
because only metadata need be synced here.

- nfsd4_sync_rec_dir now uses vfs_fsync so that commit_metadata can be static

[PATCH 1/2] commit_metadata export operation replacing nfsd_sync_dir

- Add commit_metadata export_operation to allow the underlying filesystem to
decide how to commit an inode most efficiently.

- Usage of nfsd_sync_dir and write_inode_now has been replaced with the
commit_metadata function that takes a svc_fh.

- The commit_metadata function calls the commit_metadata export_op if it's

because only metadata need be synced here.

- nfsd4_sync_rec_dir now uses vfs_fsync so that commit_metadata can be static

[PATCH 2/2] xfs_export_operations.commit_metadata

[Ben Myers]

This is the commit_metadata export operation for XFS.

- Takes one inode to be committed.

- Forces the log up to the lsn of the inode.

- Doesn't force the log if the inode doesn't have a pincount.

[PATCH 2/2] xfs_export_operations.commit_metadata

[Ben Myers]

This is the commit_metadata export operation for XFS.

- Takes one inode to be committed.

- Forces the log up to the lsn of the inode.

- Doesn't force the log if the inode doesn't have a pincount.

Thanks, applying.

(Do you the second (xfs) patch to go in through the nfsd tree as well,
or should that go in through xfs maintainers after the nfsd merge?)

I chatted with Alex.  It sounds like the best thing is for both patches
to go in through the nfsd tree since they need to go in order.

Thanks,
