Subject: [PATCH 14/74] fallthru: Basic fallthru definitions
Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2011 18:58:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1300845590-14184-15-git-send-email-valerie.aurora@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1300845590-14184-1-git-send-email-valerie.aurora@gmail.com>
From: Valerie Aurora <vaurora@redhat.com>
Define the fallthru dcache flag and file system op. Mask out the
DCACHE_FALLTHRU flag on dentry creation. Actual users and changes to
lookup come in later patches.
