Subject: [PATCH v2 12/24] proc/fd: In tid_fd_mode use task_lookup_fd_rcu
Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2020 17:14:29 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201120231441.29911-12-ebiederm@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87r1on1v62.fsf@x220.int.ebiederm.org>

When discussing[1] exec and posix file locks it was realized that none
of the callers of get_files_struct fundamentally needed to call
get_files_struct, and that by switching them to helper functions
instead it will both simplify their code and remove unnecessary
increments of files_struct.count.  Those unnecessary increments can
result in exec unnecessarily unsharing files_struct which breaking
posix locks, and it can result in fget_light having to fallback to
fget reducing system performance.

Instead of manually coding finding the files struct for a task and
then calling files_lookup_fd_rcu, use the helper task_lookup_fd_rcu
that combines those to steps.   Making the code simpler and removing
the need to get a reference on a files_struct.
