Subject: [PATCH 05/10] proc: mounts_poll() make consistent to mdstat_poll
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 12:04:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1239995074-4065-5-git-send-email-gregkh@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090417190144.GB3548@kroah.com>

From: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com>

In recently sysfs_poll discussion, Neil Brown pointed out /proc/mounts
also should be fixed.

SUSv3 says "Regular files shall always poll TRUE for reading and
writing".  see
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/poll.html

Then, mounts_poll()'s default should be "POLLIN | POLLRDNORM".  it mean
always readable.

In addition, event trigger should use "POLLERR | POLLPRI" instead
POLLERR.  it makes consistent to mdstat_poll() and sysfs_poll(). and,
select(2) can handle POLLPRI easily.
