[PATCH 6/7] s390: dasd open counter.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Horst Hummel <[email protected]>

The open_count is increased for every opener, that includes the
blkdev_get in dasd_scan_partitions. This tampers the open_count
in BIODASDINFO. Hide the internal open from user-space.
