Anyway, something like the following (untested) should change v3 to
return nfs_ok in this case, and v4 to return the same errors it would on
a non-create open.

Looking at the history, I think the v3 behavior has been there from the
start.  I wonder why we've never gotten a bug report?

Looking at wireshark.... I guess the client always does a lookup first,
so we never hit this case (unless someone replaces the file by a
non-regular-file between a lookup and a create?)

--b.

So, is this all set to eventually make it into the mainline kernel? Or is there still something I can do to help move it along?

Thanks everyone,
