I agree that it would be good to allow the app in user space to handle the syscall. The problem is that there are several syscall that NEVER return. The work to make sure that these syscalls return gracefully with the appropriate errorcodes is going to take some work. The patch I propose is an interim solution that at least keeps the CPU from being hogged. -- Matt Peterson Sr. Software Engineer Caldera, Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
