| |
Hello Trond,
I am working with the patch to make readdirplus work for NFSv3 client in linux 2.4.18
I noticed that the attributes returned are mostly thrown away as the fattr->timestamp that they get during nfs_cached_lookup() is the mtime of the directory (which is normally way in the past for directories that dont change that often). I was wondering why we cannot store the time the readdirplus results were received in the cache and use that as the fattr->timestamp.
I would like to use '1 readdirplus' to serve a 'ls -la'. Currently it is more like '1 readdirplus + getattrs for each child'. Am I missing something here?
Regards, Binny
