Hm, I'm not sure what happened to the userspace part of this which is only partly there. Thanks, I'll get that back or done (it's never been a problem for userspace, but should still be done). It may make sense to do some of this earlier for both, I'll have to see. > Also, when the short-cut of generating casts locally on certain remotly > mastered demote requests is used, does that somehow suppress the > generation of casts on the lock master? yes (it's a reply to the convert which is skipped) > I notice that the variable lkb->lkb_bastmode_done has been added, but is > only ever assigned to and never read. Was that supposed to have been > made accessible via debugfs for example? Yeah, it was used in an earlier version of this patch with a lot more checking and debugging. I'll see if there's some debugging or checking I could add that uses it or else remove.
