Subject: Re: [PATCH 4/7] xfs: Implement fallocate query support mode
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 10:56:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170918175651.GA7937@infradead.org> (raw)

This seems to miss any explanation and 6 out of 7 patches.
That being said, I really detest adding weird query modes to random
syscalls. We should expose capabilities through the interface that
was designed for such things: (f)pathconf, as there are a lot more
important parameters we currently fail to expose to userspace to
start with.
