These functions, openat etc, have been discussed on numerous\noccasions. They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,\nthey are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working\ndirectory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.\n\nWe have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the\n/proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some\nresults (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).\n\nThe test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem. Then\nrm -fr is used to remove all directories.

But they\u0027ll\nbe used. coreutils (and Jeff\u0027s posixutils) are already using them.\nFurthermore, code like ftw/fts in libc (maybe even glob) will also start using\nthem. I expect a patch to make follow soon. Every program which is walking\nthe filesystem tree will benefit.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ulrich Drepper \u003cdrepper@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan \u003cadobriyan@gmail.com\u003e\nCc: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@lst.de\u003e\nCc: Al Viro \u003cviro@ftp.linux.org.uk\u003e\nAcked-by: Ingo Molnar \u003cmingo@elte.hu\u003e\nCc: Michael Kerrisk \u003cmtk-manpages@gmx.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "bdff071dbf911bf5d1dcaedfaafebb549d2fd969", "tree": "f1f25ec5e7d2bc9901a27ea87aa0c945dc37f5ff", "parents": [ "869243a0f6143f76e7c847e707eee6ece9cbf821" ], "author": { "name": "Adrian Bunk", "email": "bunk@stusta.de", "time": "Mon Jan 09 20:52:03 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Tue Jan 10 08:01:31 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] __deprecated_for_modules the lookup_hash() prototype\n\nThis patch __deprecated_for_modules the lookup_hash() prototype.\n\nSigned-off-by: Adrian Bunk \u003cbunk@stusta.de\u003e\nCc: Christoph Hellwig \u003chch@lst.de\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "49705b7743fd8f5632a95ec4c6547d169d27ac1f", "tree": "b209b1f94bfcfee522c44d2abef1cdb196219a52", "parents": [ "8c744fb83da0771afa04695028e3550b798dad90" ], "author": { "name": "Christoph Hellwig", "email": "hch@lst.de", "time": "Tue Nov 08 21:35:06 2005 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Wed Nov 09 07:56:00 2005 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] sanitize lookup_hash prototype\n\n-\u003epermission and -\u003elookup have a struct nameidata * argument these days to\npass down lookup intents. Unfortunately some callers of lookup_hash don\u0027t\nactually pass this one down. For lookup_one_len() we don\u0027t have a struct\nnameidata to pass down, but as this function is a library function only\nused by filesystem code this is an acceptable limitation. All other\ncallers should pass down the nameidata, so this patch changes the\nlookup_hash interface to only take a struct nameidata argument and derives\nthe other two arguments to __lookup_hash from it. All callers already have\nthe nameidata argument available so this is not a problem.\n\nAt the same time I\u0027d like to deprecate the lookup_hash interface as there\nare better exported interfaces for filesystem usage.
