Subject: [PATCH v3 01/10] fhandle: create helper for name_to_handle_at(2)
Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2025 09:28:46 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250912152855.689917-2-tahbertschinger@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250912152855.689917-1-tahbertschinger@gmail.com>

Create a helper do_sys_name_to_handle_at() that takes an additional
argument, lookup_flags, beyond the syscall arguments.

Because name_to_handle_at(2) doesn't take any lookup flags, it always
passes 0 for this argument.

Future callers like io_uring may pass LOOKUP_CACHED in order to request
a non-blocking lookup.

This helper's name is confusingly similar to do_sys_name_to_handle()
which takes care of returning the file handle, once the filename has
been turned into a struct path. To distinguish the names more clearly,
rename the latter to do_path_to_handle().
