I guess Ed is working from the point of view of having updated his filesystem code from 4.X to 5.X, which would have involved more significant VFS/VNODE changes. So, his statement would be true from release series to release series, but I suspect Ed is not as familiar with FreeBSD jargon as you. > The authoritative text on submitting FreeBSD problem reports is: > > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/problem-reports/ > > If you'd read it, you'd at least know the proper way to attach a patch > to a PR. I believe I was the one who told Ed to submit his patch as a follow up, which in retrospect probably wasn't a very good idea. I'll see if I can help Ed getting his code into either ports or src/sys as seems most appropriate. David.
