Although it required hand merging, this large patch is now merged into cifs-2.6.git (for-next branch, destined for 3.10) but ... I only merged three obvious other patches (destined for 3.10) before it 4521ba9ca4138f424769f17ae7166ff5ccf08805 fs: cifs: use kmemdup instead of kmalloc + memcpy 41057e5a5d673015fc0d0e587e993d26f1818b1c cifs: replaced kmalloc + memset with kzalloc 8f43465d17982767dd5b3f5d48216ef5c100c274 cifs: ignore the unc= and prefixpath= mount options and I merged one so far after it that Jeff had already rebased ontop of Joe's large patch 457d2157ec2da6f9fa755e16ab740979f581e328 cifs: remove ENOSPC handling in smb_sendv So ... going forward for 3.10 make sure to fixup subsequent new cifs patches ontop Joe's large "cifs: Rename cERROR and cFYI to cifs_dbg" patch or else it will make merging a mess since Joe's patch changes just about very cifs file due to the macro renaming. -- Thanks, Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
