Unfortunately, the patch set hadn't significant review input from anyone
yet. But it was submitted about a month ago. So, I think, it was enough
time for reviewing the patch set by anyone. Anyway, I open for any
comments or remarks.
I think that the patch set is important because it adds support of
operations with Attributes Tree. This metadata structure is widely used
currently under Mac OS X. And absence of Attributes Tree's support in
Linux kernel can lead to file system inconsistency in some situation.
Moreover, support of operations with Attributes Tree is a basis for HFS+
compressed files and ACL support.
With the best regards,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.
