[Pvfs2-users] NFS trouble

[Murali Vilayannur]

That is not the job of the individual FS driver. That is the
responsibility of VFS and it does
exactly that. The problem is that we define a callback and not
implement it completely internally.
Hence the VFS has no way of falling back..
Like I mentioned in the previous email, we can disable the callback by
commenting out the particular #define and have the VFS do the retry.
thanks,
