From: Alexey Zaytsev Date: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 00:33:03 +0000 (+0000) Subject: fanotify: split version into version and metadata_len X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=62731fa0c893515dc6cbc3e0a2879a92793c735f;p=linux-beck.git fanotify: split version into version and metadata_len To implement per event type optional headers we are interested in knowing how long the metadata structure is. This patch slits the __u32 version field into a __u8 version and a __u16 metadata_len field (with __u8 left over). This should allow for backwards compat ABI.
