Hi Al, Today's linux-next merge of the vfs tree got a conflict in fs/dcache.c between commit 98474236f72e ("vfs: make the dentry cache use the lockref infrastructure") from Linus' tree and commit 590fb51f1cf9 ("vfs: call d_op->d_prune() before unhashing dentry") from the vfs tree. I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action is required). -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au diff --cc fs/dcache.c index 96655f4,2e5f9ca..0000000 --- a/fs/dcache.c +++ b/fs/dcache.c @@@ -726,7 -718,15 +726,15 @@@ restart spin_lock(&inode->i_lock); hlist_for_each_entry(dentry, &inode->i_dentry, d_alias) { spin_lock(&dentry->d_lock); - if (!dentry->d_count) { + if (!dentry->d_lockref.count) { + /* + * inform the fs via d_prune that this dentry + * is about to be unhashed and destroyed. + */ + if ((dentry->d_flags & DCACHE_OP_PRUNE) && + !d_unhashed(dentry)) + dentry->d_op->d_prune(dentry); + __dget_dlock(dentry); __d_drop(dentry); spin_unlock(&dentry->d_lock);
