[PATCH v7 3/9] fs: Add initial atomic write support info to statx

John Garry john.g.garry at oracle.com
Sun Jun 2 07:09:06 PDT 2024


Extend statx system call to return additional info for atomic write support
support for a file.

Helper function generic_fill_statx_atomic_writes() can be used by FSes to
fill in the relevant statx fields. For now atomic_write_segments_max will
always be 1, otherwise some rules would need to be imposed on iovec length
and alignment, which we don't want now.
