I've updated the RHEL4 U5 patch set in the bug to address the
two major issues we observed. Both of which would have effected
1.6 based releases as much as the 1.4.8 released. Issues fixed:
vfs_intent-2.6-rhel4.patch:
RHEL4-U5 introduced upstream vfs_{l,f,}stat64 calls which did
not tie in to the previous intent hooks. Added a common
vfs_getattr64_it() call to be used in these cases.
vfs_nointent-2.6-rhel4.patch:
Resolves inconsistent i_alloc_sem handling in vfs_nointent-2.6-rhel4.patch
which was introduced by RHEL linux-2.6.9-fs-lustre-support.patch.
Thanks,
Brian
