Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: XFS patches with rmap12e + 2.4.18-pre9 +

[Shawn Starr]

I'm fixing some of those as we speak, rmap12e going in and some fixes
being made to some buffer code.

2.4.18-pre9-xfs-shawn4 will be the next diff coming. There is also one
change from XFS CVS as of tonight so that will be merged in as well.

Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: XFS patches with rmap12e + 2.4.18-pre9

Some of you may experience compile problems with quota with XFS. I'm
working on a patch to be ready for today.

NOTE: Two people have reported problems with XFS + EXT3/EXT2. People
report the kernel unable to locate superblocks of EXT2/EXT3 filesystems
with XFS compiled in. Looking for help on this issue and researching. 

I'll be also intregrating 2.4.18-pre9-ac1 as well today.

Shawn.

Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: XFS patches with rmap12d + 2.4.18-pre9 +

[Shawn Starr]

Most appreciated. I will apply, I've been slow fixing shawn4 because I'm
in the process of merging some of my trees into a more clean structure. 

I can't use bk because it won't let me merge 2.4.17 vanilla, and SGI's
CVS tree into one with tag/branches. CVS does (sort of) so I have to
keep CVS.

For my custom branch, I have bk setup, I can just import the changes
from XFS tree as a GNU diff and merge it in.

As for rmap, I'll just keep getting the diffs from his website, since I
don't want another kernel tree to deal with :-)

Shawn.

I run mixed ext3 and xfs systems from the current xfs cvs tree.
We also have 2.4.18-pre9 (not ac1) running internally. As for
the superblock issue, you should check if they are allowing mount
to auto determine the filesystem type or not, this would maybe
point to stale data in the block device interface.

Just a guess.
