Signed-off-by: Jeremy Bongio <bongiojp@xxxxxxxxx> --- Changes in v3: Removed LIBRARY section since this ioctl won't be wrapped by a system library. Code now uses 4-space indent. Updated for semantic new lines. Please call out if I still break this rule. Reworded based on Darrick's suggestions. Unrecognized fsu_flags now results in EOPNOTSUPP error. Added definitions of EXT4_IOC_GETFSUUID/EXT4_IOC_SETFSUUID which are not contained in a library. man2/ioctl_fsuuid.2 | 113 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 113 insertions(+) create mode 100644 man2/ioctl_fsuuid.2 diff --git a/man2/ioctl_fsuuid.2 b/man2/ioctl_fsuuid.2 new file mode 100644 index 000000000..c9e2789b9 --- /dev/null +++ b/man2/ioctl_fsuuid.2 @@ -0,0 +1,113 @@ +.\" Copyright (c) 2022 Google, Inc., written by Jeremy Bongio <bongiojp@xxxxxxxxx> +.\" +.\" SPDX-License-Identifier: Linux-man-pages-copyleft +.TH IOCTL_FSUUID 2 2022-07-20 "Linux" "Linux Programmer's Manual" +.SH NAME +ioctl_fsuuid \- get or set an ext4 filesystem uuid +.SH SYNOPSIS +.nf +.B #include <sys/ioctl.h> +.BR "#include <linux/fs.h>" " /* Definition of " _IOR " and " _IOW " */" +.PP +.BI "#define EXT4_IOC_GETFSUUID _IOR('f', 44, struct fsuuid)" +.BI "#define EXT4_IOC_SETFSUUID _IOW('f', 44, struct fsuuid)" +.BI "int ioctl(int " fd ", EXT4_IOC_GETFSUUID, struct " fsuuid ");" +.BI "int ioctl(int " fd ", EXT4_IOC_SETFSUUID, struct " fsuuid ");" +.fi +.SH DESCRIPTION +If an ext4 filesystem supports uuid manipulation, these +.BR ioctl (2) +operations can be used to get or set the uuid for the ext4 filesystem on which +.I fd +resides. +.PP +The argument to these operations should be a pointer to a +.IR "struct fsuuid" ":" +.PP +.in +4n +.EX +struct fsuuid { + __u32 fsu_len; /* Number of bytes in a uuid */ + __u32 fsu_flags; /* Mapping flags */ + __u8 fsu_uuid[]; /* Byte array for uuid */ +}; +.EE +.PP +The +.I fsu_flags +field must be set to 0. +.PP +If +.BR EXT4_IOC_GETFSUUID +is called with +.I fsu_len +set to 0, +.I fsu_len +will be set to the number of bytes in an ext4 filesystem uuid +and the return code will be EINVAL. +.PP +If +.BR EXT4_IOC_GETFSUUID +is called with +.I fsu_len +matching the length of the ext4 filesystem uuid, +then that uuid will be written to +.I fsu_uuid[] +and the return value will be zero. +If +.I fsu_len +does not match, the return value will be +.B EINVAL. +.PP +If +.BR EXT4_IOC_SETFSUUID +is called with +.I fsu_len +matching the length of the ext4 filesystem uuid, +then the filesystem uuid will be set to the contents of +.I fsu_uuid[] +and the return value will reflect the outcome of the update operation. +If +.I fsu_len +does not match, the return value will be +.B EINVAL. +.PP +The +.BR FS_IOC_SETFSUUID +operation requires privilege +.RB ( CAP_SYS_ADMIN ). +If the filesystem is busy, an +.BR EXT4_IOC_SETFSUUID +operation will wait until it can apply the uuid changes. +This may take a long time. +.PP +.SH RETURN VALUE +On success zero is returned. +On error, \-1 is returned, and +.I errno +is set to indicate the error. +.SH ERRORS +Possible errors include (but are not limited to) the following: +.TP +.B EFAULT +Could not copy to/from userspace. +.TP +.B EINVAL +.I fsu_len +did not match the filesystem uuid length. +.TP +.B ENOTTY +The filesystem does not support the ioctl. +.TP +.B EOPNOTSUPP +The filesystem does not support changing the uuid through this ioctl. +This may be due to incompatible filesystem feature flags or +.I fsu_flags +has bits set that are not recognized. +.TP +.B EPERM +The calling process does not have sufficient permissions to set the uuid. +.SH CONFORMING TO +This API is Linux-specific. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR ioctl (2) -- 2.37.1.359.gd136c6c3e2-goog
