[PATCH 03/11] fs: add support for an inode to carry stream related data

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

 



No functional changes in this patch, just in preparation for
allowing applications to pass in hints about data life times
for writes.

Pack the i_stream field into a 2-byte hole, so we don't grow
the size of the inode.
