2007-10-09locks: add warning about mandatory locking racesJ. Bruce Fields
The mandatory file locking implementation has long-standing races that probably render it useless. I know of no plans to fix them. Till we do, we should at least warn people. Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
2007-10-09Documentation: move mandatory locking documentation to filesystems/J. Bruce Fields
Shouldn't this mandatory-locking documentation be in the Documentation/filesystems directory? Give it a more descriptive name while we're at it, and update 00-INDEX with a more inclusive description of Documentation/filesystems (which has already talked about more than just individual filesystems).
