Back when we used them we couldn't get agreement from driver authors that they need to support them, but now that ext4 has started using them they are fine.. I'm not even sure we'll need separate slab caches, the normal kmalloc caches probably are good enough. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
