Subject: Linux 3.17: Deal with d_splice_alias errors
X-Git-Url: http://git.openafs.org/?p=openafs.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=af7f1d59135526ea584a4403b6400106dc92a992;hp=880401913d6190054bb0511093606a206b16326c
Linux 3.17: Deal with d_splice_alias errors
In 3.17 the logic in d_splice_alias has changed. Of interest to
us is the fact that it will now return an EIO error if it finds
an existing connected directory for the dentry, where it would
previously have added a new alias for it. As a result the end
user can get EIO errors when accessing any file in a volume
if the volume was first accessed through a different path (ex:
RO path vs RW path).
This commit just restores the old behaviour, adding the directory
alias manually in the error case, which is what older versions
of d_splice_alias used to do.
