Subject: [git pull] VFS patches (second series)
Date: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 01:22:19 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080423002219.GW27459@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> (raw)
More namespace.c sanitizing (saner locking rules, further trimming
of stack footprint). Preparation for mountinfo merge (allowing seq_file
->show() to tell seq_file that output for this entry is to be discarded).
A couple of fixes - one for long-standing race in /proc/*/fd readdir,
another for breakage introduced on pipe() failure exit in ro-bind series
(this one is probably the most urgent in the entire pile). And misc
cleanups...
There will be probably 3 or 4 more series in this cycle - this
is not the last one...
