Well there is a way around it; we just maintain our own reference counter and use that to determine when to complete the original bio. It just seems a shame when there's a ref count in the bio already. But if Jens and Christophe are adamant that bio_chain is going to be the one and only way to access that ref count then I'll allocate another object to hold the ref count. - Joe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-block" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
