So looking at the function in full context:
int insert_inode_locked(struct inode *inode)
{
struct super_block *sb = inode->i_sb;
ino_t ino = inode->i_ino;
struct hlist_head *head = inode_hashtable + hash(sb, ino);
while (1) {
struct inode *old = NULL;
spin_lock(&inode_hash_lock);
hlist_for_each_entry(old, head, i_hash) {
if (old->i_ino != ino)
continue;
if (old->i_sb != sb)
continue;
if (!igrab(old))
continue;
break;
}
if (likely(!old)) {
spin_lock(&inode->i_lock);
iobj_get(inode);
Sorry, this is probably me being confused.
Say we allocated a new inode then we've definitely went through
inode_init_always() and so i_obj_count == i_count == 1.
Then we insert it into the hash table. For that we only take an
i_obj_count but no i_count bringing it to 2.
So for the hashlist we only deal with i_obj_count.
Is that documented somewhere? I probably just read over it.
