From ce57dfc1791221ef58b6d6b8f5437fccefc4e187 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2011 19:58:58 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] pull handling of one pathname component into a helper new helper: walk_component(). Handles everything except symlinks; returns negative on error, 0 on success and 1 on symlinks we decided to follow. Drops out of RCU mode on such symlinks. link_path_walk() and do_last() switched to using that. Signed-off-by: Al Viro --- Reading git-format-patch failed
