From 83b711cbf4ff42a9996c5f092762b3967d307d73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicolai Stange Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2016 14:11:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] debugfs: unproxify files created through debugfs_create_blob() Currently, the struct file_operations fops_blob associated with files created through the debugfs_create_blob() helpers are not file lifetime aware. Thus, a lifetime managing proxy is created around fops_blob each time such a file is opened which is an unnecessary waste of resources. Implement file lifetime management for the fops_bool file_operations. Namely, make read_file_blob() safe gainst file removals by means of debugfs_use_file_start() and debugfs_use_file_finish(). Make debugfs_create_blob() create its files in non-proxying operation mode by means of debugfs_create_file_unsafe().
