What was the fate of Ingo's previous patch[*1] to implement this (which, incidentally, also included updates to documentation and made the interval configurable as Éric Piel suggests) ? [*1]: http://lwn.net/Articles/244384/ Just a minor nit, but the patch description (not included in the patch itself) "at least once a day" isn't particularly accurate given that the patch enforces at least a day [minus a second or so] has elapsed since the last update. The description in the above-referenced patch "only once a day" better captures the situation, I think. pjrm. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
