Subject: Re: [patch] epoll use a single inode ...
Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2007 08:56:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070308085631.GA7373@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200703071831.36930.dada1@cosmosbay.com>

This patch needs a lot more documentation.  It needs some really big
comments on why this should never ever be used for a real filesystem
(real as in user mountable), and probably add an assert for that
invariant somewhere.  Please also update Documentation/filesystems/Locking
and Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt for it.
