[PATCH -mm 1/5] Hibernation: Introduce SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE ioctl

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Sun Sep 09 2007 - 17:11:38 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@xxxxxxx>

Add a new ioctl, SNAPSHOT_GET_IMAGE_SIZE, returning the size of the (just
created) hibernation image, to the hibernation userland interface.

This ioctl is necessary so that the userland utilities using the interface need
not access the hibernation image header, owned by the kernel, in order to obtain
the size of the image.
