Some people seem to think that I am proposing to do something. Understand that I have done it for 2.6.17-rc4 and am currently involved in bringing it forward to newer kernels.

The parent is any and all directories that contain a link to the stated directory. ".." points back along the path the referrer used to reach the current directory (this behavior is already in kernel: didn't have to lift a finger to get it). - 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/
