This does pass the write deadlock tests that otherwise fail. Has survived a few hours of fsx-linux on ext2 and 3. Patches against 2.6.20-rc4. I didn't have the heart to attempt to rebase them on -mm, at least until I get some feedback ;) Thanks, Nick -- SuSE Labs - 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/
