Several channels could be made to write the same unit concurrently via the SETCLASS opcode, trusting userspace is a bad idea. It should be possible to drop the per-client channel reservation and add a per-unit locking by inserting MLOCK's to the command stream to re-allow the SETCLASS opcode, but it will be much more work. Let's forbid the unit-unrelated class changes for now.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
