The patch titled
filesystem freeze: implement generic freeze feature
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
filesystem-freeze-implement-generic-freeze-feature.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: filesystem freeze: implement generic freeze feature
From: Takashi Sato <t-sato@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The ioctls for the generic freeze feature are below.
o Freeze the filesystem
int ioctl(int fd, int FIFREEZE, arg)
fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
FIFREEZE: request code for the freeze
arg: Ignored
Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
o Unfreeze the filesystem
int ioctl(int fd, int FITHAW, arg)
fd: The file descriptor of the mountpoint
FITHAW: request code for unfreeze
arg: Ignored
Return value: 0 if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, -1
Error number: If the filesystem has already been unfrozen,
errno is set to EINVAL.
[akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: fix CONFIG_BLOCK=n]
