I'd like to see a standards document cite for that. The behaviour we follow is not atypical for a lot of ioctls and syscalls were you ask for one size and the kernel gives you its preferred variant. In the other cases I can think of the kernel also does not lie about its preferred variant - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
