[git pull] VFS patches (second series)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



	More namespace.c sanitizing (saner locking rules, further trimming
of stack footprint).  Preparation for mountinfo merge (allowing seq_file
->show() to tell seq_file that output for this entry is to be discarded).
A couple of fixes - one for long-standing race in /proc/*/fd readdir,
another for breakage introduced on pipe() failure exit in ro-bind series
(this one is probably the most urgent in the entire pile).  And misc
cleanups...

	There will be probably 3 or 4 more series in this cycle - this
is not the last one...
