Flush the entire user address space from the TLB for each VMA in the
task_struct list when clearing reference bits with /proc/pid/clear_refs.

On the NCQ side, I think it's pretty safe to assume that all

Now that the CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT firewire bug has been addressed I've returned
to using a kernel configured with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT on one of my machines.
However, it seems that in 2.6.20-rt5, CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT upsets serial port
operation in some way. If I use pppd to establish a PPP connection

It can be and was fixed by gradually moving time instead of jumping to

Loose cache mode was added primarily to asssist exclusive, read-only

While cacheing is generally frowned upon in the 9p world, it has its
place -- particularly in situations where the remote file system is
exclusive and/or read-only. The vacfs views of venti content addressable
store are a real-world instance of such a situation. To facilitate higher
performance
