Could you clarify, please? I hope I'm getting the wrong end of the stick - it sounds to me like you and Pavel are saying that this patch breaks suspending to ram (and hibernating?) but you want to push it anyway because you haven't been able to produce an instance, don't think suspending or hibernating matter and couldn't fix fuse anyway? > The 'kill -9' thing is basically due to VFS level locking not being > interruptible.
