[PATCH 32/37] NFS: Add read context retention for FS-Cache to call back with

David Howells
2008-02-08T17:12:07Z

Add read context retention so that FS-Cache can call back into NFS when a read
operation on the cache fails EIO rather than reading data. This permits NFS to
then fetch the data from the server instead using the appropriate security
context.
