[PATCH] Send quota messages via netlink

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

 



  Hello,

  I'm sending rediffed patch implementing sending of quota messages via netlink
interface (some rationale in patch description). I've already posted it to
LKML some time ago and there were no objections, so I guess it's fine to put
it to -mm. Andrew, would you be so kind? Thanks.
  Userspace deamon reading the messages from the kernel and sending them to
dbus and/or user console is also written (it's part of quota-tools). The
only remaining problem is there are a few changes needed to libnl needed for
the userspace daemon. They were basically acked by the maintainer but it
seems he has not merged the patches yet. So this will take a bit more time.

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.
