[PATCH 3/8] statx: remove incorrect part of vfs_statx() comment

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>

request_mask and query_flags are function arguments, not passed in
struct kstat.  So remove the part of the comment which claims otherwise.
This was apparently left over from an earlier version of the statx
patch.
