[linux-lvm] Is there a LVM(2?) patch for 2.5.x yet?

[linux-lvm] Is there a LVM(2?) patch for 2.5.x yet?

[Austin Gonyou]

I really need to test 2.5.x and I can't ATM because of LVM patch
problems. Can someone tell me what's going on with LVM and 2.5?

TIA

In the course of a long thread on linux-kernel mailing list (thread
called "Re: v2.6 vs. v3.0") someone said that lack of a working LVM in
2.5.x was keeping away a lot of potential kernel testers.

Someone said there have been seen patches to update LVM1 in 2.5.x to a
working state, but the consensus seem to be that 2.5.x will include LVM2
instead. Someone on the list offered to check for the availability of
current LVM2 patches against 2.5.x and begin the "transition". This
person is also subscribed to this list, IIRC.

So in the following days someone should say something specific in that
respect (at least, many people hope so, Halloween feature freeze is
jsuta a month away :)

Hope this helps.

Thanks much for replying. I actually wrote Heinz directly as well, but
it appears those mails  bounced, he's got too much in his in-box.

As was my understanding from just a few months ago when the kernel
feature list was created.

Yes..I know..and now it's time to start testing for functionality Lo and
behold, LVM doesn't work on 2.5.39. Last time it did, Rik estimated,
around 2.5.7 or so. :(

I have device-mapper running under 2.5 ATM, hopefully I'll be pushing
it towards Linus in the next week or so once I've tidied the block
splitting code a bit more.

Would you be interested in testing what I have ?  It would be very
helpful if you could.

i can not promise, but i can give it a try,
i fear that raid-0 is still brocken in 2.5 ( request spliting)
and i use lvm over raid-0 :(
so i can not try 2.5 :(

actually there were some patches floating for 2.5.18 and there were some 
patches in -dj as well but i've not tried -dj since 2.5.25 i think
you can find the patch for 2.5.18 on linuxhq's unofficial patches for 2.5

and may be evms is getting in shape so we can use it in order to have access to 
our lvm volumes

As I mentioned on IRC, I'm also interested in testing it... Just a
reminder.  :)

Buying a Unix machine guarantees you a descent into Hell. It starts when
you plug the computer in and it won't boot. Yes, they really did sell you
a $10,000 computer with an unformatted disk drive.

I will give a patch a beta test against 2.5.40-ac3 also.

Just great. NP. I would like to test this stuff as well, and I think I
mentioned as much, but haven't seen anything yet. :)
