From: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Since commit 75c7940d2a86 ("lockd: set missing fl_flags field when retrieving args"), nlmsvc_retrieve_args() initializes the flc_flags field. svcxdr_decode_lock() no longer needs to do this. This clean up removes one dependency on the nlm_lock:fl field. No behavior change is expected. Analysis: svcxdr_decode_lock() is called by: nlm4svc_decode_testargs() nlm4svc_decode_lockargs() nlm4svc_decode_cancargs() nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs() nlm4svc_decode_testargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_TEST and NLMPROC4_TEST_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() - NLMPROC4_GRANTED and NLMPROC4_GRANTED_MSG, which don't pass the lock's file_lock to the generic lock API nlm4svc_decode_lockargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_LOCK and NLM4PROC4_LOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() - NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLM4PROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() - NLMPROC4_NM_LOCK, which calls nlmsvc_retrieve_args() nlm4svc_decode_cancargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_CANCEL and NLMPROC4_CANCEL_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() nlm4svc_decode_unlockargs() is used by: - NLMPROC4_UNLOCK and NLMPROC4_UNLOCK_MSG, which call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() All callers except GRANTED/GRANTED_MSG eventually call nlmsvc_retrieve_args() before using nlm_lock::fl.c.flc_flags. Thus this change is safe.

For this one, I think I'd rather see this go the other way, and just eliminate the setting of flc_flags in nlm4svc_retrieve_args. We only deal with FL_POSIX locks in svc lockd, and that does it right after locks_init_lock, so I think that means it'll be done earlier, no?Have a look at the nlm4 branch in my kernel.org <http://kernel.org/> repo to see where this is headed.(For everyone following along: It's actually in Chuck's xdrgen branch) Oh ok, I see. This is an interim step toward moving all of the lock initialization into nlm4svc_retrieve_args(). That probably is better. I withdraw my objection.Adding that observation to the commit message would help with review.
I was hoping to break these up to make them easier to review, but for 5/5 I guess it didn't help. I can send more of these clean-up/refactors along for v6.13. But I'm not sure the actual conversion later in the xdrgen branch is ready for prime time.
I agree that moving the initialisation to nlm4svc_retrieve_args() seems sensible. The half-way version in this patch looks really odd without that explanation. But the whole series Reviewed-by: NeilBrown [off-list ref] Thanks, NeilBrownquoted

Also, I think the same duplication is in nlmsvc_retrieve_args and the nlmv3 version of svcxdr_decode_lock.Which is going away when NFSv2 is removed. I'm not too concerned about that duplication.Fair enough. I'm fine with leaving that to wither for now: Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@kernel.org>
