Steve, Pavel Please find a patch that adds read leases to track when the cached root handle is valid and when it has been changed. When we receive a lease break for the handle we just set a flag for this handle from the context of the demultiplex thread. Later, on the next call to open_shroot() we check this flag and close the handle is it is set follower by re-opening the root handle anew and getting a new lease. This is an incremental change that works for the root handle since we will be calling open_shroot() frequently for it. For an incremental future change maybe we should also have a dedicated thread that will regularely traverse and close any cached handles we have when the flag to indicate the lease is broken has been set. With this patch we no longer need 83b1ab5f2a7f56d6e767c076b9dffa7783d49fe8 from for-next so oyu can revert that patch. -- 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
