[PATCH] hostfs: uml: add some other pagecache methods
This is a follow-up to my previous "hostfs - uml: set .sendfile to generic_file_sendfile" patch. I was asking whether other methods should have been added, and comparing with ext3 I found some more ones. However, I have not specific clues about them: I know they use the pagecache, which relies on *page methods, which are defined by hostfs. So I think it could work. I have a doubt, whether hostfs needs the commented out method below: static struct address_space_operations hostfs_aops = { .writepage = hostfs_writepage, .readpage = hostfs_readpage, /* .set_page_dirty = __set_page_dirty_nobuffers, */ .prepare_write = hostfs_prepare_write, .commit_write = hostfs_commit_write }; Hostfs does not have a underlying device (and I have some rough idea that buffers cache block devices data), so I wonder if that is needed or not.
