Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] iomap: add iomap_symlink_write
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 14:41:55 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <348ed49a8aa85c6c23c21034c8598401e9938e3d.1787770110.git.jbingham@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1787770110.git.jbingham@gmail.com>
Add a new iomap_symlink_write function as an iomap based equivalent to
page_symlink found in fs/namei.c. Part of being that equivalency is
behaving similarly to page_symlink. This function now expects the same
len as page_symlink, where len is the length of the null terminated
target string. The target is still written out without the trailing
null.
