NILFS 2.0.12 released

NILFS 2.0.12 released

[Ryusuke Konishi]

Dear NILFS users,

We have released nilfs-2.0.12.

This release fixes GC-related problems which are suspected to cause
filesystem corruption recently reported in this mailing list.

Thanks to David Arendt and Andreas Hartmetz for their feedback and
cooperation.  I hope this will stabilize cleaner operation.

The updated package is available at:
http://www.nilfs.org/en/download.html

Thanks,
Ryusuke Konishi

I'm testing it already :)
If you don't hear back from me you can assume that the problem is
solved for me - so far there have been no errors. Thanks!

Hi,

Many thanks from me too.
Until now everything works completely fine.
I will report back if a problem will appear.

After using the new version, I had twice the following crash:

Call Trace:
 [<c01247be>] copy_process+0xa3e/0xf90
 [<c0124e27>] do_fork+0x77/0x2c0
 [<c017b740>] sys_pipe2+0x40/0x70
 [<c0101622>] sys_clone+0x32/0x40
 [<c0103131>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x25

but I will report this to the kernel mailing list as I suspect this has 
nothing to do with nilfs, but was triggered by pure hazard after running 
the new version.

Bye,
David
