From b27256439568950f30864ccecaeb6dfb588089d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nitin Gupta Date: Mon, 17 May 2010 11:02:42 +0530 Subject: swap: Add flag to identify block swap devices Added SWP_BLKDEV flag to distinguish block and regular file backed swap devices. We could also check if a swap is entire block device, rather than a file, by: S_ISBLK(swap_info_struct->swap_file->f_mapping->host->i_mode) but, I think, simply checking this flag is more convenient.
