<AlmuHS>the fsys_startup() can be replaced by another, depending whatever you wants to make in the translator

<nexussfan>qoth soon :D

<Gooberpatrol_66>:D

<nexussfan>hopefully classicube/hurd gets on there ;)

<azert>hello

<azert>is it possible for a Hurd translator to “personalize” content in function of the task asking for it?

<azert>in other words, does the translator know who made the rpc?

<azert>for open, or read?

<youpi>the rpc, no

<youpi>the open, yes

<azert>what is the difference?

<azert>How to get this info on open?

<youpi>one can pass an opened fd to another process through a unix socket

<youpi>see dir_lookup, which has a struct protid *

<youpi>e.g. diskfs_S_dir_lookup
