Steve, all here is a re-send of the initial 6 patches to move towards compounding support. I fixed build issue sin the initial patch. I think the initial patch is fairly trivial and low risk so you may consider merging it. The second patch still has a bug with the handling of error response packets which break some of the xfs tests. So for the second patch and beyond, only review but do not merge until I find and fix the error response packet build. -- 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
