> Not every translator has an inode table (nor it is required to). Only the translators which do inode management (like fuse-bridge, protocol/server, libgfapi, possibly nfsv3 server??) will have an inode table associated with them. If you need to access itable, you can do that using inode->table.

Here the old location was created by assigning a fixed gfid using 
STACK_WIND (mkdir) from translator [notify ( )]. And inode was null 
inside its cbk function. Thus old location doesn't have an inode value.
