109 * struct export_operations - for nfsd to communicate with file systems
110 * @encode_fh: encode a file handle fragment from a dentry
111 * @fh_to_dentry: find the implied object and get a dentry for it
112 * @fh_to_parent: find the implied object's parent and get a dentry for it
113 * @get_name: find the name for a given inode in a given directory
114 * @get_parent: find the parent of a given directory
115 * @commit_metadata: commit metadata changes to stable storage
117 * See Documentation/filesystems/nfs/Exporting for details on how to use
118 * this interface correctly.
120 * encode_fh:
121 * @encode_fh should store in the file handle fragment @fh (using at most
122 * @max_len bytes) information that can be used by @decode_fh to recover the
123 * file referred to by the &struct dentry @de. If the @connectable flag is
124 * set, the encode_fh() should store sufficient information so that a good
125 * attempt can be made to find not only the file but also it's place in the
126 * filesystem. This typically means storing a reference to de->d_parent in
127 * the filehandle fragment. encode_fh() should return the fileid_type on
128 * success and on error returns 255 (if the space needed to encode fh is
129 * greater than @max_len*4 bytes). On error @max_len contains the minimum
130 * size(in 4 byte unit) needed to encode the file handle.
132 * fh_to_dentry:
133 * @fh_to_dentry is given a &struct super_block (@sb) and a file handle
134 * fragment (@fh, @fh_len). It should return a &struct dentry which refers
135 * to the same file that the file handle fragment refers to. If it cannot,
136 * it should return a %NULL pointer if the file was found but no acceptable
137 * &dentries were available, or an %ERR_PTR error code indicating why it
138 * couldn't be found (e.g. %ENOENT or %ENOMEM). Any suitable dentry can be
139 * returned including, if necessary, a new dentry created with d_alloc_root.
140 * The caller can then find any other extant dentries by following the
141 * d_alias links.
143 * fh_to_parent:
144 * Same as @fh_to_dentry, except that it returns a pointer to the parent
145 * dentry if it was encoded into the filehandle fragment by @encode_fh.
147 * get_name:
148 * @get_name should find a name for the given @child in the given @parent
149 * directory. The name should be stored in the @name (with the
150 * understanding that it is already pointing to a a %NAME_MAX+1 sized
151 * buffer. get_name() should return %0 on success, a negative error code
152 * or error. @get_name will be called without @parent->i_mutex held.
154 * get_parent:
155 * @get_parent should find the parent directory for the given @child which
156 * is also a directory. In the event that it cannot be found, or storage
157 * space cannot be allocated, a %ERR_PTR should be returned.
159 * commit_metadata:
160 * @commit_metadata should commit metadata changes to stable storage.
162 * Locking rules:
163 * get_parent is called with child->d_inode->i_mutex down
164 * get_name is not (which is possibly inconsistent)
