Subject: [PATCH 00/20] Support follow_link in RCU-walk - V3
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 13:37:38 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150323023258.8161.32467.stgit@notabene.brown> (raw)

Hi Al,
 thanks for all your review help - particularly the fact that
 dentry->d_inode is not stable in RCU-walk.  That has lead to
 a number of changes.

 I think this set addresses all of your review comments, improves
 some documentation, and has a go at providing a solution for lustre.

 I hope to organize some proper testing soon, so I can confirm that it
 makes certain loads a lot faster.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
