From: Christoph Hellwig Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2005 05:35:04 +0000 (-0800) Subject: [PATCH] add a vfs_permission helper X-Git-Tag: v2.6.15-rc1~362 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4543eddfd3bf3e0d625841377fa695a519edfd4;p=pandora-kernel.git [PATCH] add a vfs_permission helper Most permission() calls have a struct nameidata * available. This helper takes that as an argument and thus makes sure we pass it down for lookup intents and prepares for per-mount read-only support where we need a struct vfsmount for checking whether a file is writeable.
