Note, BTW, that fscrypt tries to be very special in its handling of that stuff - see fscrypt_handle_d_move() thing and comments in front of its definition. Then take a look at the place where it's called. BTW, it looks like it's broken, since it discounts the possibility of splice caused by lookup on no-key name. You get DCACHE_NOKEY_NAME removed unconditionally there, no-key or not. It's not impossible that the boilerplate around the fscrypt_has_permitted_context() calls in fscrypt-enabled ->lookup() instances somehow prevents those, but if so, it's not obvious from the causual look. _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
