I'm in the middle of trying to make sure I understand everything about the kernel locking code. Only place that has any goofiness I'm not sure about is the afs_xflock() routine.
Here's the issue though - it's NEVER used... at least not anywhere I can see. There are no references to it anywhere. Only thing I can think of is that it might be some special case - i.e. load a kernel module named 'afs', and it uses a bunch of extra calls named 'afs_.*'. That or it was a work in progress that was never actually enabled anywhere. Does anyone with a bit wider knowledge have any idea if this routine is actually needed? Pretty much everything else in the locking code I've got figured out (and I've got a plan in place to clean it up quite a bit - even before the byte-range extensions). -- Nathan ------------------------------------------------------------ Nathan Neulinger EMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Missouri - Rolla Phone: (573) 341-4841 Computing Services Fax: (573) 341-4216 _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
