From 411d9475cf901b5a6d2996b46cb5726184a4fa50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dominik Brodowski Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2018 11:34:54 +0100 Subject: fs: add ksys_ftruncate() wrapper; remove in-kernel calls to sys_ftruncate() Using the ksys_ftruncate() wrapper allows us to get rid of in-kernel calls to the sys_ftruncate() syscall. The ksys_ prefix denotes that this function is meant as a drop-in replacement for the syscall. In particular, it uses the same calling convention as sys_ftruncate(). This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls. On this basis, the syscall entry path can be streamlined.
