The basic functionality is good.

Right, but the recent fixes have exposed Linux to a labelled namespace implementation that violates some of the driver's basic assumptions. To preserve the level of operation you're currently seeing Linux might need to add a hyper-v-specific quirk to force label-less operation. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
