[PATCH 11/13] vfs: export __inode_permission() to modules

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

 



From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

We need to be able to check inode permissions (but not filesystem implied
permissions) for stackable filesystems.  Expose this interface for overlayfs.
