Steve, All Please see an updated version for plumbing we need for compounding. They are based on current for-next and it passes the same xfstests for smb2 with these patches as without. I.e. it passes sudo ./check -s smb2 -E tests/cifs/exclude.incompatible-smb2 \ -E tests/cifs/exclude.very-slow These patches have gone through a lot of testing by now and few rounds of review. Please focus on patches 1-8, if we can get these into for-next then that would be awesome. -- 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
