You don't really describe what the technique is. Something like d_find_alias() may do what you want. Without knowing more about what you're asking, I would assume that if the technique works for ext2, it will probably work for jfs. > -can the same technique be used with jfs2 on AIX ?

If "dentry->d_flags & DCACHE_UNHASHED" is zero, then it should be valid. > thanks > -kamal > -- David Kleikamp IBM Linux Technology Center ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
