There are several examples, even with xfs and btrfs where ->s_uuid does not contain the filesystem's UUID or there is more than one uuid and ->s_uuid is not the correct one to expose to the user. A model like ioctl_[gs]etflags() looks much more appropriate and could be useful for network filesystems/FUSE as well. > > > Signed-off-by: Kent Overstreet <kent.overstreet@linux.dev> > > > Cc: Christian Brauner <brauner@kernel.org> > > > Cc: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> > > > Cc: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> > > > Cc: "Darrick J.

Does anyone? > All the other hoisted FS_IOC_* use the original fs ioctl namespace they came from. Although it is not an actual hoist, I'd use: struct fsuuid128 { __u32 fsu_len; __u32 fsu_flags; __u8 fsu_uuid[16]; }; #define FS_IOC_GETFSUUID _IOR('f', 45, struct fsuuid128) #define FS_IOC_SETFSUUID _IOW('f', 46, struct fsuuid128) Technically, could also overload EXT4_IOC_[GS]ETFSUUID numbers because of the different type: #define FS_IOC_GETFSUUID _IOR('f', 44, struct fsuuid128) #define FS_IOC_SETFSUUID _IOW('f', 44, struct fsuuid128) and then ext4 can follow up with this patch, because as far as I can tell, the ext4 implementation is already compatible with the new ioctls.

Yeah, some of you were smoking some good stuff from the stories I've been hearing... > A model like ioctl_[gs]etflags() looks much more appropriate > and could be useful for network filesystems/FUSE as well. A filesystem needs to store two UUIDs (that identify the filesystem as a whole). - Your internal UUID, which can never change because it's referenced in various other on disk data structures - Your external UUID, which identifies the filesystem to the outside world. Users want to be able to change this - which is why it has to be distinct from the internal UUID. The internal UUID must never be exposed to the outside world, and that includes the VFS; storing your private UUID in sb->s_uuid is wrong - separation of concerns. yes, I am aware of fscrypt, and yes, someone's going to have to fix that. This interface is only for the external/public UUID.
