This is bound to cause tremendous confusion. Can we please change the name to "fs_quota_entry"? Consider what will happen when (or if) there is a "zfs_quota_entry" or an "lfs_quota_entry": it will look to anyone reading the code as if ufs_quota_entry is specific to the ufs layer and the filesystems that use it. Not good. David, is it the case that ufs_quota_entry as presently defined is generic enough that it can serve your needs for LFS? If not, what would have to be changed? Thor
