If you We use file handles on local filesystems. They have exactly the same semantics as NFS file handles and so local filesystems have the same ESTALE exposure as "distributed" filesystems to this problem. i.e: $ man open_by_handle_at ..... ESTALE The specified handle is not valid. This error will occur if, for example, the file has been deleted. We've been doing this on XFS since before it was ported to linux 15 years ago... ;) Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- 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
