Gentle ping.

John,

Could you please confirm that:

a. The AppArmor refcount usage described in the RFC is correct?
b. Approach taken to fix the scalability issue is valid/correct?


Hi Neeraj,

I know your patchset has been waiting on review for a long time.
Unfortunately I have been very, very busy lately. I will try to
get to it this weekend, but I can't promise that I will be able
to get the review fully done.


Gentle prod.

Any chances of this getting reviewed in the foreseeable future? Would
be a real bummer if the patchset fell through the cracks.


yes, sorry I have been unavailable for the last couple of weeks. I am
now back, I have a rather large backlog to try catching up on but this
is has an entry on the list.


So where do we stand here?

sorry I am still trying to dig out of my backlog, I will look at this,
this weekend.
