Put a type field into struct dentry::d_flags to indicate if the dentry is one of the following types that relate particularly to pathwalk: Miss (negative dentry) Directory "Automount" directory (defective - no i_op->lookup()) Symlink Other (regular, socket, fifo, device) The type field is set to one of the first five types on a dentry by calls to __d_instantiate() and d_obtain_alias() from information in the inode (if one is given). The type is cleared by dentry_unlink_inode() when it reconstitutes an existing dentry as a negative dentry. Accessors provided are: d_set_type(dentry, type) d_is_directory(dentry) d_is_autodir(dentry) d_is_symlink(dentry) d_is_file(dentry) d_is_negative(dentry) d_is_positive(dentry) A bunch of checks in pathname resolution switched to those.
