Hopefully that > answers your question. wrong. i added xattr support to fuse, for use in selinux. it's a long story. http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0409.2/1441.html and yes, for the record, i am just as comfortable with hardware designs as with software, having designed a massively parallel encryption algorithm capable of doing up to about 16384-bit block sizes with key sizes of up to around 8192-bits, (which unfortunately wasn't very fast in software - you can't have everything), came up with some significant improvements to the plessey/imperial-uni/man-uni ALICE parallel transputer network as a third year project, and also provided aspex, the massively-parallel SIMD processor company, with enough new material and ideas in four months for them to have to register six new patents. ... why are you people bothering to attempt to go "oh, this guy must not know anything therefore we'll waste the list's time with our opinions on whether he cannot do anything", such that i have to refute you, and look like a complete egg-head jumped-up i'm-better-than-you horn-blowing tosser? stop it! everyone has their level and areas of expertise: instead of turning this into a pissing contest, be glad and humbled for an opportunity to learn from each other. l. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
