$Id: TODO,v 1.6 2000/06/19 23:55:57 hpa Exp $ autofs v3 TODO list ------------------- * I am accepting minor changes to autofs v3 such as additional modules. No major changes. autofs v4 TODO list ------------------- * autofs 4 is developed by Jeremy Fitzhardinge. It supports multimounts without being quite as radical a departure architecturally. autofs v5 TODO list ------------------- * Completely rewritten kernel protocol, using the new VFS features introduced by Alexander Viro for the 2.4 kernel series. * Use multithreading rather than processes in the daemon. * Support multimount entries. (Quite messy: can't unmount the tree as a unit, probably needs locking while constructing the tree, and needs scaffolding if no entry for /. Appears *very* difficult to do without threading!) * /net support: need hostname resolver module (easy) as well as mountd query (easy) plus all the multimount entry stuff... * Direct mount support. * (Hopefully) some kind of inode spoofing to support browsable directories.
