Re: [PATCH] 9p: basic sysfs support

["Latchesar Ionkov" <lucho@ionkov.net>]

This patch adds only the basic 9p functionality, we use the sysfs
interface extensively for configuring the 9p in-kernel servers (patch
7 in the series). The v9fs filesyste will probably add some more
subdirectories for authenticating users and mapping user names to
uids...

Thanks,
    Lucho
