Returning EOPNOTSUPP is problematic because it can also be returned by the method function, and we use it in quite a few places in drivers these days. Instead, dedicate EPROTONOSUPPORT to indicate that the ioctl framework is enabled but the requested object and method are not supported by the kernel. No other case will return this code, and it lets userspace know to fall back to write(). grep says we do not use it today in drivers/infiniband subsystem.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
