This seems like a good and proper patch to me, and simple too. But like all changes, it needs tested. While I was testing it, I discovered a regression in the associated userspace code. I "bisected" (we use SVN for the userspace part of Orangefs) down to the commit that caused the regression, and some of the userspace folks are going to fix it.
I don't think I should ask Linus to pull this patch until I can test it. Since we're about to go into rc7, it might not go in until the next go around... -Mike On Tue, Nov 22, 2016 at 10:49 AM, Martin Brandenburg <mar...@omnibond.com> wrote: > On Mon, 21 Nov 2016, Christophe JAILLET wrote: > >> The "perf_counter_reset" case has already been handled above. >> Moreover "ORANGEFS_PARAM_REQUEST_OP_READAHEAD_COUNT_SIZE" is not a really >> consistent. >> It is likely that this (dead) code is a cut and paste left over. > > That's exactly what this is. > > Reviewed-by: Martin Brandenburg <mar...@omnibond.com> > >> >> Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jail...@wanadoo.fr> >> --- >> fs/orangefs/orangefs-sysfs.c | 9 --------- >> 1 file changed, 9 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/fs/orangefs/orangefs-sysfs.c b/fs/orangefs/orangefs-sysfs.c >> index a799546a67f7..084954448f18 100644 >> --- a/fs/orangefs/orangefs-sysfs.c >> +++ b/fs/orangefs/orangefs-sysfs.c >> @@ -609,15 +609,6 @@ static ssize_t sysfs_service_op_store(struct kobject >> *kobj, >> new_op->upcall.req.param.u.value32[0] = val1; >> new_op->upcall.req.param.u.value32[1] = val2; >> goto value_set; >> - } else if (!strcmp(attr->attr.name, >> - "perf_counter_reset")) { >> - if ((val > 0)) { >> - new_op->upcall.req.param.op = >> - ORANGEFS_PARAM_REQUEST_OP_READAHEAD_COUNT_SIZE; >> - } else { >> - rc = 0; >> - goto out; >> - } >> } >> >> } else if (!strcmp(kobj->name, ACACHE_KOBJ_ID)) { >> -- >> 2.9.3 >> >>
