more pedantry ... just noticed this snippet in include/linux/stat.h:
...
#include <uapi/linux/stat.h>
#define S_IRWXUGO (S_IRWXU|S_IRWXG|S_IRWXO)
#define S_IALLUGO (S_ISUID|S_ISGID|S_ISVTX|S_IRWXUGO)
#define S_IRUGO (S_IRUSR|S_IRGRP|S_IROTH)
#define S_IWUGO (S_IWUSR|S_IWGRP|S_IWOTH)
#define S_IXUGO (S_IXUSR|S_IXGRP|S_IXOTH)
...
given that all of the other S_ perm macros are exported in
include/uapi/linux/stat.h, as in:
#define S_IRWXU 00700
#define S_IRUSR 00400
#define S_IWUSR 00200
#define S_IXUSR 00100
#define S_IRWXG 00070
#define S_IRGRP 00040
#define S_IWGRP 00020
#define S_IXGRP 00010
and so on, is there a reason those few combination perm macros are not
exported as well? or is the userspace stat.h so well-defined at this
point that cosmetic changes like this are frowned upon?
