From 4e0641a7ad98fca5646a6be17605bc80f6c4ebde Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Trond Myklebust Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2006 13:05:13 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] NFS: Optimise away an excessive GETATTR call when a file is symlinked In the case when compiling via a symlink tree, we want to ensure that the close-to-open GETATTR call is applied only to the final file, and not to the symlink.
