Right. Now, would you kindly post the detailed technical analysis of your wonderful design that handles that stuff safely? With proof of correctness, please. Since we are expected to take your code and use it as "Uber" replacement for the existing one, it surely would not be too much to expect, would it?
And no, "we have a nice presentation somewhere on namesys" does not qualify.
I apologize for the obvious posting in a thread already full of noise, but I would like to make *very* sure that lack of ripping you another one does *not* mutate into "no objections from viro" in a lovely thread on SlashDot in a week or so.
Reiser4 as it is shipping today, consists of close to the minimal functionality necessary to replace reiser3, albeit done according to our plugin model, and with vastly higher performance. The full solution is not yet written, wait for it. I understand why you think deadlocks are everything, but avoiding them is only a small, albeit necessary, piece of the task.
Thanks though for pointing out issues with unlinking files that have been cd'd to.
