Most of the following patches are bugfixes:
There are a couple of spin locking fixes to follow up the BKL removal.
There are some attribute update fixups, mainly to make the spin
locking more efficient
A fix for the problem of autobind on cloned RPC clients
The one feature that has been added is the lookup revalidation mount
option to allow clients to specify that they might not want to cache
negative dentries, and that they might want strict dentry revalidation.
The version of the fs_locations fixes are slightly older than my most
recent. Looking back through the archive, I think it may have been my
mistake. Sorry!
Theres a missing patch from Chuck that makes the ip address parsing a
bit more paranoid. Ill resend that, followed by the newer versions of
the other patches.
Aside from the missing patch from Chuck, the only difference between the
versions you have and my latest are summarized below. its just:
- a cosmetic change to set_port to address your complaints about
blocks used just to define local variables, and
- changes to stop bothering to check for scope ids in v6
addresses.
So--could you just take the following patches, and throw out the 4
corresponding patches from me in your current tree?
Ill split your patch into 2 and apply on top the existing tree.
