(Well, any setattr that doesn't set size--if it sets size, you'll get OPENMODE (since we don't support write delegations) before we get around to breaking any delegations. In fact, it skips all the stateid processing entirely in the case size isn't set--so you could send garbage in the stateid field and it'd work.) --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
