Hi Al, Can you pull these patches on top of Christoph's procfs changes? The patches do:
(*) Rearrange fs/afs/proc.c to get rid of the forward declarations and simplify the commenting. (*) Supply functions that allow writable net proc files to be created (this could be extended to provide writing on non-net proc files). (*) Implement network namespacing in AFS and simplify the proc usage, using the new convenience functions provided. I've included another couple of small patches also: (*) afs_net::ws_cell should be annotated and accessed for RCU. This patch would conflict with the other patches if separate. (*) Fix a sparse warning where sparse can't manage to follow the locking in a function. Note that these patches don't quite complete network namespacing; the last bit requires the mount API patches to allow propagation of the network namespace across automounts. The patches are tagged here: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git afs-namespace-20180523 The patches can be found here also: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs.git/log/?h=afs-namespace David --- David Howells (8): afs: Move /proc management functions to the end of the file afs: Rearrange fs/afs/proc.c by moving fops and open functions down afs: Rearrange fs/afs/proc.c to move the show routines up afs: Rearrange fs/afs/proc.c to remove remaining predeclarations. proc: Add a way to make network proc files writable afs: Fix a Sparse warning in xdr_decode_AFSFetchStatus() afs: Mark afs_net::ws_cell as __rcu and set using rcu functions afs: Implement network namespacing fs/afs/cell.c | 12 - fs/afs/cmservice.c | 2 fs/afs/fsclient.c | 97 +++--- fs/afs/internal.h | 45 +-- fs/afs/main.c | 33 ++ fs/afs/netdevices.c | 6 fs/afs/proc.c | 787 +++++++++++++++++------------------------------ fs/afs/rxrpc.c | 2 fs/afs/super.c | 20 + fs/proc/generic.c | 24 + fs/proc/internal.h | 2 fs/proc/proc_net.c | 92 +++++ include/linux/proc_fs.h | 12 + 13 files changed, 552 insertions(+), 582 deletions(-)
