[PATCH 4/6] [RFC] Split do_linkat() out of sys_linkat

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

 



Separate the __user pathname handling from the bulk of the syscall.
Since we're doing this to enable relinking of unlinked files by
sys_checkpoint and not sys_linkat we're not using a sys-wrapper.
