Subject: [PATCH 2/2] erofs: add ioctl to retrieve the backing source file descriptor
Date: Wed,  8 Jul 2026 11:34:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260708093446.3370200-3-gscrivan@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260708093446.3370200-1-gscrivan@redhat.com>

Add EROFS_IOC_GET_SOURCE_FD ioctl that returns a file descriptor to the
backing image file for file-backed erofs mounts.

Returns -ENOENT for block-device-backed erofs mounts where there is no
backing file.

The UAPI constant is defined in include/uapi/linux/erofs.h.
