Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 623 Lines: 18 Hi, There was some discussion 6 months ago about including Herbert Poetzl's Bind Mount Extensions http://www.13thfloor.at/patches/ in a 2.4.x (x = 23 at the time) kernel. Can someone please give an update? The Bind Mount Extensions allow bind-mounting part of a rw filesystem read-only, which is very useful to people running vservers and other chrooted stuff.
