| |
Hi,
These patches implement swap files on NFS, but lay the foundation to allow swap files on any non block device backed file.
As is, these patches allow for swapfiles to me used on NFS mounts. However some extra work is needed to make this safe. It is not very hard to deadlock a kernel with only these patches.
In the next VM deadlock avoidance series I will include a patch to remedy this. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
