2008-10-23[PATCH] get rid of on-stack fake dentry in ext3_get_parent()Al Viro
Better pass parent and qstr to ext3_find_entry() explicitly than use such kludges, especially since the stack footprint is nasty enough and we have every chance to be deep in call chain. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2008-10-23[JFFS2] Reinstate NFS exportabilityDavid Woodhouse
Now that the readdir/lookup deadlock issues have been dealt with, we can export JFFS2 file systems again. (For now, you have to specify fsid manually; we should add a method to the export_ops to handle that too.)

2008-10-23[PATCH] Remove XFS buffered readdir hackDavid Woodhouse

2008-10-23[PATCH] Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code.David Woodhouse
Some file systems with their own internal locking have problems with the way that nfsd calls the ->lookup() method from within a filldir function called from their ->readdir() method. The recursion back into the file system code can cause deadlock. XFS has a fairly hackish solution to this which involves doing the readdir() into a locally-allocated buffer, then going back through it calling the filldir function afterwards. It's not ideal, but it works. It's particularly suboptimal because XFS does this for local file systems too, where it's completely unnecessary. Copy this hack into the NFS code where it can be used only for NFS export. In response to feedback, use it unconditionally rather than only for the affected file systems.

2008-10-23[PATCH] new helper: d_obtain_aliasChristoph Hellwig
The calling conventions of d_alloc_anon are rather unfortunate for all users, and it's name is not very descriptive either. Add d_obtain_alias as a new exported helper that drops the inode reference in the failure case, too and allows to pass-through NULL pointers and inodes to allow for tail-calls in the export operations. Incidentally this helper already existed as a private function in libfs.c as exportfs_d_alloc so kill that one and switch the callers to d_obtain_alias.

Yes, this will probably be switched over to a cleaner model anyway, but in the meantime I don't want to see the 'unused variable' warnings that come from the disgusting #ifdef code. Make the special case be a nice inlien function of its own, clean up the code, and make the warning go away. I wish people didn't write code that gets (valid) warnings from the compiler, but I'll limit my fixes to code that I actually care about (in this case just because I see the warning and it annoys me).
