We will need to verify the patch I've used for the VFS locking is adequate because I had some difficulty working out which of the several originally posted were the ones needed and at least one didn't even apply. It will be included in the series I post. Since no-one else has replied I'll post the patch series and copy everyone on the cc list of the original discussion and yourself. Ian
