The patch titled ext4: copy i_flags to inode flags on write has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is ext4-copy-i_flags-to-inode-flags-on-write.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ext4: copy i_flags to inode flags on write From: Jan Kara <jack@xxxxxxx> Propagate flags such as S_APPEND, S_IMMUTABLE, etc. from i_flags into ext4-specific i_flags. Hence, when someone sets these flags via a different interface than ioctl, they are stored correctly.
