Subject: ext3-2.4-0.9.10
Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2001 23:01:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BAECC4F.EF25393@zip.com.au> (raw)
An ext3 patch against linux 2.4.10 is at
http://www.uow.edu.au/~andrewm/linux/ext3/
This patch is *lightly tested* - ie, it boots and does stuff.
The changes to ext3 are small, but the kernel which it patches
has recently changed a lot. If you're cautious, please wait
a couple of days.
The patch retains the buffer-tracing code. This will soon be
broken out into a separate patch to make ext3 suitable for
submission for the mainstream kernel.
Changelog:
- Fix an oops which could occur at unmount time due to non-empty
orphan list. This could be triggered by an earlier error during a
truncate.
- Merge Ted's directory scan speedup heuristic.
- Remove the abort_write() address_space_operation by ensuring that
all prepare_write() callers always call commit_write().
- A number of changes to suit the new 2.4.10 VM and buffer-layer design.
