2017-06-20sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list namingIngo Molnar
So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry. Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case the 'task_list' name is actively confusing. To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure fields unambiguously: struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry For example, this code: rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list ... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way: rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry ... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head. Other examples are: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) { ... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be a bug), while now it's written as: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) { Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
2017-06-20sched/wait: Rename wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_tIngo Molnar
Rename: wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t 'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue", but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head, which had to carry the name. Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'. This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry', which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

2015-04-09fs_pin: Allow for the possibility that m_list or s_list go unused.Eric W. Biederman
This is needed to support lazily umounting locked mounts. Because the entire unmounted subtree needs to stay together until there are no users with references to any part of the subtree. To support this guarantee that the fs_pin m_list and s_list nodes are initialized by initializing them in init_fs_pin allowing for the possibility that pin_insert_group does not touch them. Further use hlist_del_init in pin_remove so that there is a hlist_unhashed test before the list we attempt to update the previous list item. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>

These externs belong in fs/internal.h. Rename (they are not acct-specific anymore) and move them over there. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
2014-08-07take fs_pin stuff to fs/*Al Viro
Add a new field to fs_pin - kill(pin). That's what umount and r/o remount will be calling for all pins attached to vfsmount and superblock resp. Called after bumping the refcount, so it won't go away under us. Dropping the refcount is responsibility of the instance. All generic stuff moved to fs/fs_pin.c; the next step will rip all the knowledge of kernel/acct.c from fs/super.c and fs/namespace.c. After that - death to mnt_pin(); it was intended to be usable as generic mechanism for code that wants to attach objects to vfsmount, so that they would not make the sucker busy and would get killed on umount. Never got it right; it remained acct.c-specific all along. Now it's very close to being killable. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
