Great!

I will test your patch to msdosfs_vnops.c tonight. Don't! I posted them without testing (ehm...), and later I discovered that I'm getting kernel panics (msdosfs_lock: locking against myself). Of course, you did the right thing: I blindly applied all -current patches, but shouldn't apply the 1.67 -> 1.68 patch as that one requires patches to other kernel files. > I will merge the other your patches into mine, test them, and > upload them as a new version soon. Ok, fine. I'm running currently with tonight (19th May 00:30 UTC) -current sources, but the 1.68 locking changes, and it seems to work. I'm updating the msdosfs sources on a daily basis, please let me know if you would like to receive more patches as -current goes on. I will not send today ones because they are relative to your v0.3 sources, and that isn't the last version anymore. One thing that I don't like of -current version is that it will not generate a long name on a FAT16 slice unless it finds a long name there. I had to reboot under Windows 95, put a dummy file with long name on that slice and then reboot under FreeBSD to make it write long names. I don't like this feature, but I know it was added recently for pre-Windows 95 compatibility. It would be great to have a mount option to force long names. > Hideki Yamamoto (hyama@acm.org) Bye, UP To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
