The RHEL4 XFS module code at
<ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/testing/RHEL4/> is now about a year old.
Is there any chance that it could be updated with something based on
more recent code?
Thanks

Funny you should ask, I just started looking at this last night :)
It was originally based on the SLES9 xfs code; my plan is to simply update it to
the latest sles9 xfs codebase, as that has been tended to with a goal of
stability by the fine folks at sgi.... so, no bleeding-edge xfs for now (I
don't particularly want to backport 2.6.18 xfs code to 2.6.9....)
BTW I have test RHEL5 xfs rpms too, in very test-y state:

Will do. Are there particular issues you're having, or is your code
just feeling a bit old in general. ;-)

No particular issue in my case, but there tend to be some bug fixes in
any given 12-month time-span... ;-)
