14 * stick to conventions so we can share some generic code and don't confuse
15 * sniffers like ethereal/wireshark.

72 * struct export_operations - for nfsd to communicate with file systems
73 * @encode_fh: encode a file handle fragment from a dentry
74 * @fh_to_dentry: find the implied object and get a dentry for it
75 * @fh_to_parent: find the implied object's parent and get a dentry for it
76 * @get_name: find the name for a given inode in a given directory
77 * @get_parent: find the parent of a given directory
79 * See Documentation/filesystems/Exporting for details on how to use
80 * this interface correctly.
82 * encode_fh:
83 * @encode_fh should store in the file handle fragment @fh (using at most
84 * @max_len bytes) information that can be used by @decode_fh to recover the
85 * file refered to by the &struct dentry @de. If the @connectable flag is
86 * set, the encode_fh() should store sufficient information so that a good
87 * attempt can be made to find not only the file but also it's place in the
88 * filesystem. This typically means storing a reference to de->d_parent in
89 * the filehandle fragment. encode_fh() should return the number of bytes
90 * stored or a negative error code such as %-ENOSPC
92 * fh_to_dentry:
93 * @fh_to_dentry is given a &struct super_block (@sb) and a file handle
94 * fragment (@fh, @fh_len). It should return a &struct dentry which refers
95 * to the same file that the file handle fragment refers to. If it cannot,
96 * it should return a %NULL pointer if the file was found but no acceptable
97 * &dentries were available, or an %ERR_PTR error code indicating why it
98 * couldn't be found (e.g. %ENOENT or %ENOMEM). Any suitable dentry can be
99 * returned including, if necessary, a new dentry created with d_alloc_root.
100 * The caller can then find any other extant dentries by following the
101 * d_alias links.
103 * fh_to_parent:
104 * Same as @fh_to_dentry, except that it returns a pointer to the parent
105 * dentry if it was encoded into the filehandle fragment by @encode_fh.
107 * get_name:
108 * @get_name should find a name for the given @child in the given @parent
109 * directory. The name should be stored in the @name (with the
110 * understanding that it is already pointing to a a %NAME_MAX+1 sized
111 * buffer. get_name() should return %0 on success, a negative error code
112 * or error. @get_name will be called without @parent->i_mutex held.
114 * get_parent:
115 * @get_parent should find the parent directory for the given @child which
116 * is also a directory. In the event that it cannot be found, or storage
117 * space cannot be allocated, a %ERR_PTR should be returned.
119 * Locking rules:
120 * get_parent is called with child->d_inode->i_mutex down
121 * get_name is not (which is possibly inconsistent)
