2007-06-29blockdev: add BLKFRAGET/BLKFRASET ioctlsKarel Zak1-0/+6
In Linux 2.6 the BLKRASET ioctl has the desired effect for mounted file-systems. In Linux 2.4 it appears to set the number of blocks to read-ahead on the *device* as opposed to within a *file*, and the maximum value of this number is 255. As a result the invocation of blockdev will fail on Linux 2.4 for any usefully large value of READAHEAD, and will not in any case have the desired affect for fragmented files. (Based on the blockdev-getfra-setfra.patch Debian patch.) Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
