What's the situation on unprivileged mounts? iirc, it's all a bit stuck. If unpriv-mounts code isn't going to go into mainline ahead of r/o bind mounts then it'd make a big mess to prepare the r/o bind mount patches on top of unprivileged mounts. It sounds like a better approach would be for me to merge the r/o bind mounts code and to drop (or maybe rework) the unprivileged mounts patches - 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/
