Hello Paul,
thank you for your patch. Could you please add the recipe name to the
beginning of the commit summary as demanded by the commit policy
[1]. ;-)
I will. This one actually was my first patch (I made the same mistake in
my second patch - the wvstreams dbus issue - which I already fixed), so
don't worry, my commit summary naming should be OK for future patches :)
This adds include/linux/falloc.h to the list of files
exported by the kernel to the C library.
The include file is required for building e.g. a recent util-linux-ng
against 2.6.24.
it looks like the same fix was committed upstream [3] in March 2008 [4].
Since the Linux kernel 2.6.24 was released in January 2008 this fixed
should be present in all Linux kernels>= 2.6.24.
It is present in all kernels > 2.6.24. It's actually in the changelog
for 2.6.25:
<http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/kernel/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.25>
(search the page for "falloc.h").
But we're stuck with 2.6.24 :-/
If you sent a patch iteration, please add that information to the commit
message.
What's a patch iteration?

Could you please add a patch header as suggested in [2].
I suppose you're referring to a line like
upstream: OE-only
? As this patch is not supposed to go upstream (because it's already
there) - do you think this is still necessary?
Otherwise I'd just adjust the patch summary and then resubmit the patch
as v2.
Regards,
Thilo
