Subject: [PATCH] hugetlbfs: publish HUGETLBFS_MAGIC via linux/magic.h
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2009 08:16:57 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090629121657.GA9848@qemfd.net> (raw)
statfs(2)'s man page (release 3.21) lists HUGETLBFS_MAGIC among the other
constants, as one would expect. It's not actually exported, though; it's
buried within inode.c in fs/hugetlbfs/ (iirc, the kvm userland code has
cut-and-pasted the definition into their sources). This patch brings the
exported interface into conformance with documentation, is necessary for
[f]statfs(2)-based verification of hugetlbfs mounts, and eliminates a
duplicate definition of TMPFS_MAGIC floating around in smack_lsm.c.
This is against 2.6.30-rc1. --rigorously, nick
