Subject: [PATCH] ntfs(3): export super block magic
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 08:40:47 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260319234047.43253-1-dxdt@dev.snart.me> (raw)
Export NTFS_SUPER_MAGIC and NTFS3_SUPER_MAGIC so that the NTFS
implementation could be differentiated from userspace through
fstatfs() and the coreutils comamnd `stat -f`.
