From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Mon, 22 Sep 2008 19:21:01 +0000 (-0400) Subject: ext4: Don't use 'struct dentry' for internal lookups X-Git-Tag: v2.6.28-rc1~709^2~17 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f702ba0fd7d50b5f5f5aea5317875a10d40b869f;p=pandora-kernel.git ext4: Don't use 'struct dentry' for internal lookups This is a port of a patch from Linus which fixes a 200+ byte stack usage problem in ext4_get_parent(). It's more efficient to pass down only the actual parts of the dentry that matter: the parent inode and the name, instead of allocating a struct dentry on the stack.
