Subject: [PATCH md 000 of 4] Introduction
Date: Tue, 10 May 2005 15:04:02 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050510145931.1553.patches@notabene> (raw)

Hi Andrew,

Following are 4 patches for md in 2.6.12-rc3-mm3

The first is appropriate for 2.6.12 - it fixes a potential data corruption 
with linear arrays (which was notice under XFS which does journal writes with
interesting alignments I think).
The second fixes an unlikely-to-hit-in-real-life bug where if an array fails
to be assembled properly, an oops maybe could eventuate.

The last two relate to bitmap intent logging and so depend on the other 
related patches in -mm.
I think this bitmap stuff should be ready to go to Linus as soon as 2.6.12 is out.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
