Hi,

I took a look at this patch again to see if I can get it polished and fixed. Per the discussion, I've removed the rd_indexattr list and replaced it with a simple flag. While doing so, I noticed a couple of places that should have consider (init or free) rd_hotblockingattr.

Patch 0001 is the v2, 0002 removes the rd_indexattr etc.

regards
