The agreed plan for 2.6.28 still has the following patchsets to go in: . Combine the XFS and Linux inode structures V2 . Track reclaimable inodes in inode cache . AIL cleanup and bug fixes . Account for allocated blocks when expanding directories . Check for valid transaction headers in recovery . fix remount rw with unrecognized options It's starting to look like a pretty aggressive merge and QA schedule. Dave, is it worth doing any testing until these are *all* merged? Thanks -- Mark
