Subject: Re: [PATCH nfs-utils 1/2] Remove 'force' arg from cache_flush()
Date: Fri, 21 May 2021 15:52:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YKe7MMg0hPs8Lf5Y@pevik> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <162156122215.19062.11710239266795260824@noble.neil.brown.name>

Hi Neil,

> Since v4.17 the timestamp written to 'flush' is ignored,
> so there isn't much point choosing too precisely.

> For kernels since v4.3-rc3-13-g778620364ef5 it is safe
> to write 1 second beyond the current time.

> For earlier kernels, nothing is really safe (even the current
> behaviour), but writing one second beyond the current time isn't too bad
> in the unlikely case the people use a new nfs-utils on a 5 year old
> kernel.

> This remove a dependency for libnfs.a on 'etab' being declare,
> so svcgssd no longer needs to declare it.

Kind regards,
