The patch titled Subject: autofs: add AUTOFS_EXP_FORCED flag has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is autofs-add-autofs_exp_forced-flag.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/autofs-add-autofs_exp_forced-flag.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/autofs-add-autofs_exp_forced-flag.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ian Kent <raven@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: autofs: add AUTOFS_EXP_FORCED flag The userspace automount(8) daemon is meant to perform a forced expire when sent a SIGUSR2. But since the expiration is routed through the kernel and the kernel doesn't send an expire request if the mount is busy this hasn't worked at least since autofs version 5. Add an AUTOFS_EXP_FORCED flag to allow implemention of the feature and bump the protocol version so user space can check if it's implemented if needed.
