Dear Linux man-pages. I'd like to ask about the status of this patch I'd sent years ago, which doesn't seem to be applied as of man-pages 3.53. Should I modify the patch somehow or supply more information? Thanks in advance, Ambrus ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Zsbán Ambrus <ambrus@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 3 Apr 2010 18:36:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] linux man-pages ioctl_list(2) FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES To: mtk.manpages@xxxxxxxxx Dear linux man-pages, The attached patch adds four ioctls from linux/msdos_fs.h to the ioctl_list(2) manpage. The ioctl FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES reads FAT attributes of a file a mounted vfat file system. I tested this on Linux 2.6.33, an example script can be found at "http://www.perlmonks.com/?node_id=832623";. The constants are a bit difficult to access, you may need to include the following headers to get them defined correctly (and the order matters; and even then they are defined the have the wrong type, unsigned long instead of int): <sys/types.h> <sys/ioctl.h> <linux/types.h> <linux/dirent.h> <linux/msdos_fs.h>. Do you suppose this should be mentioned in the manpage? Ambrus
