For an open file the block device inode is pointed to by file->f_mapping->host. > Were you expecting that this would work on block devices? It seems they will > need a different API -- a new BLK* ioctl, or files in /sys/block/$dev/queue. blkdev_get_no_open on inode->i_rdev gets you the block device, which then has bdev->bd_inode point to the underlying block device, although for a block device those limit probably would be retrieved not from the inode but the gendisk / request_queue anyway. _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list Linux-f2fs-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
