I'll try to get that patch added tonight/tomorrow (although I'm basically without internet until the 7th). Al mentioned to me (for a completely unrelated reason) he'd rather see internal and external open flags split, so we don't have that stupidity of masking off FMODE_EXEC and FMODE_NONOTIFY. I'll probably try to work on something like that, after I'm back working. Maybe Al or Christoph would like to actually review this work and tell me everything else they don't like? -Eric -- 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
