Hi,

Another posting of the full swap over NFS series.
Andrew/Linus, could we start thinking of sticking this in -mm?


Two questions:
1 - what is the memory use impact on the system which don't do swap over NFS, such as embedded systems, and 2 - what is the advantage of this code over the two existing network swap approaches, swapping to NFS mounted file and swap to NBD device?

I've used the NFS file when a program was running out of memory and that seemed to work, people in UNYUUG have reported that the nbd swap works, so what's better here?
