User-Visible OpenAFS Changes

OpenAFS 1.6.14.1

  Linux clients

    * Support kernels up to 4.2

      Due to changes to internal data structures with this kernel release,
      the OpenAFS client can no longer reset the link count during path
      lookups. Since volume root directories must behave like symlinks
      instead of normal directories in order to satisfy Linux kernel
      invariants, looking up paths containing more than 40 mount points
      will fail with ELOOP on such kernels.
