This change is buggy. I had already posted it and self NACKed myself [1].
You can find an hopefully non-buggy version of it on my ovl-shutdown [2] branch.
As long as you are changing ovl_ioctl(), please also take the second
commit on that
branch to replace the open coded capability check with the
vfs_ioc_setflags_prepare()
generic helper.
Hi Amir,
Thanks a lot for your quick reply. :-)
I will try to read and understand the metioned patches on your
ovl-shutdown branch.
Best Regards,
Xiao Yang
Thanks,
Amir.
