Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/7] mountd: Ensure we don't share cache file descriptors among processes.
Date: Tue, 21 May 2019 08:46:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190521124701.61849-2-trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190521124701.61849-1-trond.myklebust@hammerspace.com>

Sharing cache descriptors without using locking can be very bad.
