Subject: [PATCH 2.6] mark NFS/TCP not EXPERIMENTAL
Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2004 11:29:06 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040608012906.GD22272@sgi.com> (raw)
G'day,
NFS/TCP has been used widely for a long time now, and is now
enabled by many distros and typically recommended for lossy or
congested networks. This patch removes the EXPERIMENTAL tag,
updates the help text, and changes arch defconfigs to set it
by default (note that several already did so).
