From 94753db5ed9ad97582ef453127d9626a7a2be602 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Thu, 10 May 2012 12:19:19 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vfs: do the careful dentry name access for all dentry_cmp cases Commit 12f8ad4b0533 ("vfs: clean up __d_lookup_rcu() and dentry_cmp() interfaces") did the careful ACCESS_ONCE() of the dentry name only for the word-at-a-time case, even though the issue is generic. Admittedly I don't really see gcc ever reloading the value in the middle of the loop, so the ACCESS_ONCE() protects us from a fairly theoretical issue. But better safe than sorry. Also, this consolidates the common parts of the word-at-a-time and bytewise logic, which includes checking the length. We'll be changing that later.
