Sounds good. But, how do you specify the iocharset's nls for utf8?

The _kernel_ has no reason to force one policy, and that's why I suggested to add per-filesystem driver option (not per-super_block). (e.g. nls provides interface for it, etc...) -- OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> - 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/
