Subject: [GIT PULL] block/IO bits for 2.6.35-rc1
Date: Fri, 04 Jun 2010 14:53:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C08F758.7070009@fusionio.com> (raw)

Hi,

These are a bunch of updates for 2.6.35-rc1. The major components:

- Revert of the two writeback fixes that made WB_SYNC_NONE
  writeback from umount actually work. They apparently cause
  problems for Christoph, so revert them until we figure this
  out.

- Updates to the pipe fcntl F_{GET,SET}PIPE_SZ interface to
  reflect the discussion with Michael. The major bits there
  are allowing for just 1 page in the pipe, change of capability
  required to enlarge a pipe beyond the system setting, and
  change of the /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-pages to be in bytes
  like the fcntl API. The latter also renames the file to
  pipe-max-size to reflect that.

- A drbd update.

- The rest are minor fixes, like discard support for brd to
  ease testing of that and some memory consumption improvements
  for CFQ.

Please pull.
