Subject: [PATCH 0/6] fix xfs by making I/O to vmap/vmalloc areas work
Date: Wed,  9 Sep 2009 10:52:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1252511536-22066-1-git-send-email-James.Bottomley@suse.de> (raw)

Here's version two of the patch set.  It actually compiles on both x86
and parisc.  I could do with someone to test it on arm and sh.

The key test is how xfs behaves.  What I did to recreate the problem
on parisc was simply create an 8GB xfs filesystem, use cp -a to pump
about a GB of data into it from my git trees, then unmount and run
xfs_check.  Before the patches, xfs_check reports the whole fs to be
corrupt.  After the patches it reports everything to be OK.

James
