    [PATCH] 2.5.6 correct NFS client handling of EJUKEBOX error... · dbd6e343
    Trond Myklebust authored
      The following patch resyncs 2.5.6 with the 2.4.x series w.r.t. the
    handling of the EJUKEBOX error. The latter is an NFS-specific error
    that is returned by servers that support hierarchical storage: it
    notifies the client that the request cannot be completed in a timely
    fashion (Imagine for instance a situation where you have a cdrom
    jukebox system, and the user has just requested a file on another cd).
    
    Under these circumstances, the RFC specifies that the request should
    be retried after suitable timeout during which the server will attempt
    to perform whatever action is required to make the file available
    again.
