Subject: cluster-coherent leases
Date: Thu, 31 May 2007 17:40:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1180647624483-git-send-email-bfields@fieldses.org> (raw)

NFSv4 uses leases to offer clients better caching.  Unfortunately that
doesn't work well on a cluster filesystem, since leases are acquired
only locally.

So, add the following patches add new lease and break methods, and a
simple lease implementation for GFS2 that just refuses to grant any
leases for now.

Opinions?
