Seriously. This is some very heinous code. If I could figure out an easy way around the fact that a vcache has a vnode in it, and not a vnode pointer, I'd probably start down this road, I'd also need to rip out a considerable amount of AFS code that deals with it having its own VLRU cache, etc. It seems in terms of support from them it makes sense to just play along. -- David Cross | email: crossd@cs.rpi.edu Lab Director | Rm: 308 Lally Hall Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, | Ph: 518.276.2860 Department of Computer Science | Fax: 518.276.4033 I speak only for myself. | WinNT:Linux::Linux:FreeBSD To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-fs" in the body of the message
