Hi All,
Now that the vboxguest driver which the vboxsf (guest shared folder) fs driver depends on is queued for merging into 4.16 in char-misc-next, all the dependencies for the vboxsf are in place.
So here is a v2 of my initial vboxsf, addressing all of the remark from Christoph Hellwig about v1: -Removed various unused wrapper functions -Don't use i_private, instead defined alloc_inode and destroy_inode methods and use container_of. -Drop obsolete comment referencing people to http://www.atnf.csiro.au/people/rgooch/linux/vfs.txt -move the single symlink op of from lnkops.c to file.c
As well as bunch of other cleanups: -Use SPDX license headers -Replace SHFLROOT / SHFLHANDLE defines with normal types -Removed unnecessary S_ISREG checks -Got rid of bounce_buffer in regops, instead add a "user" flag to vboxsf_read / vboxsf_write, re-using the existing __user address support in the vboxguest module -Make vboxsf_wrappers return regular linux errno values -Use i_size_write to update size on writing -Convert doxygen style comments to kerneldoc style comments
Please review.
Regards,
Hans
