I think it would be better to replace it with a wrapper that forces O_DIRECT and opens the underlying block device. I suspect just dropping it will break many people's database setups, which is not nice. Widely used admin interfaces should be only broken when there is a very good reason and just "there is a better way now" doesn't seem quite strong enough. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
