No need to store the received mask. It is either STATX_BASIC_STATS or STATX_BASIC_STATS & ~STATX_SIZE. If STATX_SIZE is requested, the cache is bypassed anyway, so the cached mask is unnecessary to decide whether to do a real getattr. This is a change. Previously a getattr would want size and use the cached size. All of the in-kernel callers that wanted size did not want a cached size. Now a getattr cannot use the cached size if it wants size at all. Signed-off-by: Martin Brandenburg <martin@omnibond.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Marshall <hubcap@omnibond.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
