From 8e8934695dfd1d5013555a74a9da706a2e301cb0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kara Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 23:29:31 -0700 Subject: quota: send messages via netlink Implement sending of quota messages via netlink interface. The advantage is that in userspace we can better decide what to do with the message - for example display a dialogue in your X session or just write the message to the console. As a bonus, we can get rid of problems with console locking deep inside filesystem code once we remove the old printing mechanism.
