From d39454ffe4a3c85428483b8a8a8e5e797b6363d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Shilovsky Date: Mon, 24 Jan 2011 14:16:35 -0500 Subject: CIFS: Add strictcache mount option Use for switching on strict cache mode. In this mode the client reads from the cache all the time it has Oplock Level II, otherwise - read from the server. As for write - the client stores a data in the cache in Exclusive Oplock case, otherwise - write directly to the server.
