Subject: [PATCH 00/18] gfs2 patches on for-next
Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2026 16:51:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260413145211.881752-1-agruenba@redhat.com> (raw)

Hello,

we currently have the following patches on for-next, to be submitted for
upstream inclusion in the current merge window.  These mainly address
the following problems:

* When inodes got evicted, changes in the page cache were sometimes
  discarded instead of being written back do disk (as exhibited by
  xfstest generic/211).

* Systems under heavy memory pressure were issuing too many log flushes,
  leading to a degradation in performance.

* An occasional leak of bufdata objects.

* Some minor improvements to the handling of withdraws.

Thanks,
Andreas
