I have a couple of questions about AFS locking: I've found the code in afs_vnop_flock.c that modifies byte-range lock requests. Is this code executed by the cache manager or file server? I'm tempted to guess cache manager. If so, does the NT client use the same function or is it implemented differently; I haven't been able to find another place that looks like this, but I may not be looking in the right place.
Also, I've seen the question come up on various lists about why not change the function to convert a byte-range lock into an exclusive lock; has anyone tried anything like this? does it actually have any benefit or detriment? (I have modified one test Linux box I have to do this, I think; but, I'm not really sure how to test it.) -frank _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
