Convert the assert to a if (), and then in the body do something like: if (mask & (...) { char buf[MAX_PATHLEN]; d_path(VFS_I(ip)->i_dentry, buf, MAXPATHLEN); xfs_warn(mp, "%s: mask 0x%x mismatch on file %s\n", __func__, mask, buf); ASSERT(0); } Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Chinner david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
