I do not really have time to review this in details. 2. I do not want to block this either 3. I want to merge this to 3.7 with come pre-conditions (see below) as "Experimental" with a claim that the on-flash format can be changed. Something like Linus did for btrfs. Then let people play with fastmap. I am sure it'll need changes when people try to use it in production. =20 a. Aiaiai is happy b. You provide a section for the mtd web site describing fastmap c. It does not break anything when it is disabled d. When it is enabled, it also passes the UBI tests Actually, I want to expose it to linux-next already after step a. Despite a lot of testing you have already done, I am willing to do some testing myself as well, so I'll do c. and d. and let you know if there are issues. Could you please do b. ? --=20 Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy --=-JiLOpgp6PFEr9L3H7T1Q Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJQYtnnAAoJECmIfjd9wqK0SOIP+QFDXBwCs6hFbH8HpPB1Y3MW 9XUsOI+nzw4tfFVlYn0q4L7Lq7tGE0aydZOe767Aa9WMRJhFP+AaQ0DBHJ9MrEeW KELQRAJ1gTGmFosAmEg4/rurx9RX8p+J1dU91tA+faPMq1AJ9rvVT14aCmZLjloW QYab/zigRmD2t/RA5xnqNfbsD3zeaN38x5OuyhHNNXHjlLp2cC3Q5nbh97WKzPt7 zP7EY+n202dffovk9fsp2nDF1XfEHmB2KKZBf5UHomIZJu2mN+/eL3ozF+IJdJzK W9cf41uN1bO6EQnrmuXJhMXtmMOWy7BzV3SgvgOM+cKt3Jd9/xN7L0WF5BWqevWS WHYZ3g+oT6ki2c88IdHkjn/7GkEy8X1IxKlbJcMExRZ2vX6qOZ2Lz4mV1ipDDQzm 5brqd/gK8E4NuJxLsTl3Os80rkmoBarJVZfudQiBDS5gA9/qQVrxHcHjJO5PxRPd nj2fM305YOpxPvMujBfSvPubRRKpqm81f56iXAg37fQWJLF5uRnhDcuCIggEr6l+ oMtz+h53vRXHEfkI1lISKbgkUWJZ07meGT8d90s00sqMigJnuLf1Iz5u+2ntOazB IZZjH3x3QZLpFru+UBbRJZHdhZJ4u+8quj2q9bGrUANgqR4oC0kmPKuCSVPFDtbh Anhj/VdJI1mYHSAnSXuH =XvRE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-JiLOpgp6PFEr9L3H7T1Q--
