From 764c76b371722e0cba5c24d91225f0f954b69d44 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 01:48:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] locks: allow ->lock() to return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED Allow filesystem's ->lock() method to call posix_lock_file() instead of posix_lock_file_wait(), and return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED. This makes it possible to implement a such a ->lock() function, that works with the lock manager, which needs the call to be asynchronous. Now the vfs_lock_file() helper can be used, so this is a cleanup as well. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi Cc: "J.
