Subject: [PATCH 0/6 resend] statfs: handle mount propagation
Date: Wed, 2 May 2018 17:42:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180502154239.14013-1-christian.brauner@ubuntu.com> (raw)
Hey,
This is the second resend of this patchset. I'm not sure whether it has
simply been overlooked but the number of people get_maintainer.pl was
rather small and seemed a little random so I added Linus and Christoph,
two people I know that do look at VFS stuff at least from time to time,
although they weren't listed by get_maintainer.pl. I hope that's ok.
This little series
- unifies the definition of constants in statfs.h and fs.h
*Note, that Andreas has expressed doubts whether this unification is
useful. Please see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/13/571 . I still think
it is but I'm happy to drop these two patches if others agree.*
- extends statfs to handle mount propagation. This will let userspace
easily query a given mountpoint for MS_UNBINDABLE, MS_SHARED,
MS_PRIVATE and MS_SLAVE without always having to do costly parsing of
/proc/<pid>/mountinfo.
To this end the flags:
- ST_UNBINDABLE
- ST_SHARED
- ST_PRIVATE
- ST_SLAVE
are added. They have the same value as their MS_* counterparts.
Thanks!
Christian
