Subject: [PATCH 2/5] nfsd4: don't pretend to support write delegations
Date: Thu, 29 Jul 2010 18:21:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1280442084-17867-3-git-send-email-bfields@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1280442084-17867-1-git-send-email-bfields@redhat.com>

The delegation code mostly pretends to support either read or write
delegations.  However, correct support for write delegations would
require, for example, breaking of delegations (and/or implementation of
cb_getattr) on stat.  Currently all that stops us from handing out
delegations is a subtle reference-counting issue.

Avoid confusion by adding an earlier check that explicitly refuses write
delegations.

For now, though, I'm not going so far as to rip out existing
half-support for write delegations, in case we get around to using that
soon.
