It's the problem Cornelia reported in the thread the patch was posted. Okay, somehow it's missing lkml on cc list. I included everybody related but missed lkml. A lot of screw ups lately. My apologies. Currently, known problems are... 1. new sysfs_drop_dentry() not allowing drop of parent when it's not empty. Reported by Cornelia and this thread reports the same problem. I'm working on it now. 2. using sysfs_dirent pointer as sysfs inode number doesn't work because ino_t is smaller than ulong on some archs. It's also broken for 32bit apps on 64bit archs. Updated patch just submitted for review. 3. Sysfs rename doesn't work. I broke it during the first series of sysfs updates. Will fix in a few days. Again, sorry for all the troubles. I'll be more careful. -- tejun - 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/
