Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] xfs_io: add missed inode command into man page
Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2017 13:02:07 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1493010128-8153-1-git-send-email-zlang@redhat.com> (raw)

There's an "inode" command in xfs_io, it's used to query physical
information about an inode. But there's not any information about
it in xfs_io and other related man pages. So document this command
in the xfs_io man page now.

Hi,

This V2 follow Eric's suggestion, changed some description, and moved
the inode command from "FILE I/O" section to "OTHER COMMANDS" section.

Thanks,
Zorro
