Message-ID: <20011011160750.D696@holly.calldei.com> Reply-To: chris@FreeBSD.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Sender: owner-freebsd-arch@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG There is at least one longstanding bug in the -STABLE implementation of fdescfs at this point, and since the -CURRENT code has been around for quite some time now, has had adequate testing time, and is generally cleaner than the original code, I'm all for merging the entire thing into -STABLE now that 4.4-RELEASE has past. I'm not entirely sure, however, if POLA is a real problem in this case since so obviously few people use it, and I'd like your feedback as to whether it is or isn't.
