From 55708698c5f153f4e390175cdfc395333b2eafbd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gu Zheng Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2013 17:56:12 +0800 Subject: fs/anon_inode: Introduce a new lib function anon_inode_getfile_private() Introduce a new lib function anon_inode_getfile_private(), it creates a new file instance by hooking it up to an anonymous inode, and a dentry that describe the "class" of the file, similar to anon_inode_getfile(), but each file holds a single inode. Furthermore, anyone who wants to create a private anon file will benefit from this change.
