Subject: [PATCH 1/3] nsfs: move root inode number to uapi
Date: Fri, 06 Jun 2025 11:45:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250606-work-nsfs-v1-1-b8749c9a8844@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250606-work-nsfs-v1-0-b8749c9a8844@kernel.org>
Userspace relies on the root inode numbers to identify the initial
namespaces. That's already a hard dependency. So we cannot change that
anymore. Move the initial inode numbers to a public header.
