Fwd: [PATCH] linux man-pages ioctl_list(2) FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES

[Zsbán Ambrus]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 712 bytes --]

Dear linux man-pages,

The attached patch adds four ioctls from linux/msdos_fs.h to the
ioctl_list(2) manpage.

The ioctl FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES reads FAT attributes of a file a
mounted vfat file system.  I tested this on Linux 2.6.33, an example
script can be found at "http://www.perlmonks.com/?node_id=832623".

The constants are a bit difficult to access, you may need to include
the following headers to get them defined correctly (and the order
matters; and even then they are defined the have the wrong type,
unsigned long instead of int): <sys/types.h> <sys/ioctl.h>
<linux/types.h> <linux/dirent.h> <linux/msdos_fs.h>.  Do you suppose
this should be mentioned in the manpage?

Ambrus

Dear Linux man-pages.

I'd like to ask about the status of this patch I'd sent years ago,
which doesn't seem to be applied as of man-pages 3.53.  Should I
modify the patch somehow or supply more information?

Thanks in advance,

Ambrus
