This "feature" is severely broken and yes, outright removal is what I'd suggest for a fix. HFS+ allows hardlinks to files, which means that you allow multiple dentries for the same inode with ->lookup() in it, which is asking for deadlocks. This is fundamentally not supported. Considering that forks are lousy idea in the first place, I'd seriously suggest to remove that idiocy for good. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
