Subject: [LSF/MM TOPIC] [ATTEND] readdirplus-like (xgetdents) system call
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2013 12:00:56 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1170701534.11703194.1358960456337.JavaMail.root@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1358934230.2728.16.camel@menhir>
Like Steve mentioned in his email earlier, I'm working on a readdirplus-like (I'm calling it xgetdents for now) system call. This came up as a desired filesystem feature from GFS2 from a Clustered Samba perspective. I hope to have some results to present by April.
Could you please add me to the attendee list.
I also second Steve's thought of having a session to discuss various clustered samba/NFS issues we haven't talked about in a while.
Cheers!
