Sure, that's clear. What I mean is: If you turn on xfs in RHEL4's
kernel is it considered safe with 4KSTACKS? If not, that would make
the whole point of building the kernel modules out of the tree
meaningless.
lkml and this list sometimes consider NFS & XFS a dangerous
combination stackwise. Urban legend or is there truth to it?
