As Al points out, this doesn't help much: if this feature is something a distro will want to provide, then in practice all their users are eventually going to end up with it turned on. Could you quantify the cost somehow? I wonder if you could get away with something less than MAX_HANDLE_SIZE? 128 bytes is the maximum allowable by NFSv4. In practice I don't think any of our filesystems need more than 40 or so right now. --b. > > - a small fix in exportfs code to prevent nil dereference > > the comments would be appreciated. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
