1.3 Mandatory Locking As A Mount Option
---------------------------------------

Mandatory locking, as described in 'Documentation/mandatory.txt' was prior
to this release a general configuration option that was valid for all
mounted filesystems. This had a number of inherent dangers, not the least
of which was the ability to freeze an NFS server by asking it to read a
file for which a mandatory lock existed.

a file for which a mandatory lock existed.

From this release of the kernel, mandatory locking can be turned on and off
on a per-filesystem basis, using the mount options 'mand' and 'nomand'.
