After looking at this, since you have to change all of these filesystems anyway, I'm not sure there's a lot of value in having new_inode_autonum(); they all previously called new_inode() and then filled in a few fields of the new inode. Why not just call new_inode(), and add a call to inode->i_inum = iunique(sb, 0)? We don't have new_inode_autouid() or new_inode_autoatime(), why is i_ino special in this regard? -Eric - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
