OK, I'll try to forward-port Ed's code to do that from 2.4 to 2.5 this weekend...Side note: while I absolutely think that is the right thing to do, that's also the much more "interesting" change. As a result, I'd be happier if it went through channels (ie probably Andrew) and had some wider testing first at least in the form of a CFT on linux-kernel.
Absolutely. This idea has been implemented but hasn't yet received wider testing. I guess I'll try to get this patch on LWN with a large CFT attached ;)))
[ Or has it already been in 2.4.x in any major tree?
Not yet. I'll pass it on through Andrew... cheers, Rik -- Bravely reimplemented by the knights who say "NIH". http://www.surriel.com/ http://distro.conectiva.com/ -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
