It goes against the current convention (which is de facto, I admit), so I think if we're running out of proper ways to classify these operations into higher level sets we should discuss extending the convention and renaming to support that. If you want to start merging it into the main tree I think it would probably be a good idea if we discussed the naming before that, you know? I don't think this fits in any of the current sets of operations, just like mac_externalize() et al :) -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \'[ FreeBSD ]''''''''''\ <> green@FreeBSD.org <> bfeldman@tislabs.com \ The Power to Serve! \ Opinions expressed are my own. \,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,\ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe p4-projects" in the body of the message
