Hi,
two questions about 9p semantics:
1/
Netware will not let me rename a file which is open.
So, when wstat updates a file's name does 9p place a
restriction on wether the file is open or not?
Do I have to do a close, rename and reopen on rename
or is just close safe? I guess the answer is reopen
the file - more races :-(
Netware has similar restrictions on deleteing files/dirs so
I am closing then also, but I cannot imagine any side
effects from this.
2/
Netware changes its file ID (which I map to Qid) when
a file is renamed.
Using lib9p is it OK to change fid->qid in wstat, under the
libraries feet so to speak?
Also, will it mess up plan9 clients?
-Steve
