source: trunk/kernel/fs/vfs.h @ 615

Last change on this file since 615 was 614, checked in by alain, 6 years ago

1) introduce a dev_ioc_sync_write() function in IOC API,

to improve the DEVFS synchronous update.

2) fix a big bug in both the user_dir_create() and user_dir_destroy()

functions: add an extended pointer on the reference client process
in the function's arguments.
