From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Robert Peterson Date: Thu, 01 Feb 2007 11:31:00 -0600 Subject: [Cluster-devel] [PATCH] GFS: update gfs-kernel HEAD to 2.6.20 (please review) Message-ID: <45C223D4.6060304@redhat.com> List-Id: To: cluster-devel.redhat.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi Cluster Developers, Attached is a patch for HEAD that allows it to compile and run on an upstream kernel. Currently, I'm using Linus' 2.6.20-rc7 kernel from git. The biggest changes are to (1) ops_file.c regarding upstream changes to vfs's aio operations, and (2) glock.c regarding upstream changes to how workqueues work. It also contains a couple little cleanups. Please review and send me comments. Special note about the aio changes to ops_file.c: Wendy Cheng added some code for AIO a while back, and this patch deviates from that code a little bit. Namely, there was a place in function do_read_buf where the aio path was waiting for async io to complete, and I took that out. Let me know if you think this needs to go back in. I'd also like to hear your opinions on if/when we should make HEAD deviate from RHEL5 and start tracking the upstream kernel rather than the RHEL5 kernel.
