ANNOUNCEMENT: 2.4.18-rc1-xfs-shawn6 released

[Shawn Starr]

xfs-2.4.18-rc1-shawn6   against 2.4.17 vanilla. (Feb 17th, 2002)

Contains:

2.4.18-rc1                      (Marcelo Tosatti)
rmap12f                         (Rik van Riel

Newest XFS from CVS-HEAD        (me)
IDE taskfile IO patch           (Andre Hedrick)

* NOTES:

Removed -pre9-ac4 because Quotas seem to break hard with XFS/EXT2/3.
- This hurts the merge of XFS into -mjc until we sort this out.

Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: 2.4.19-pre1-ac1-xfs-shawn7 released

[Shawn Starr]

Some people have tested and have booted successfully. There is one compile
error in fs/xfs/xfs_utils.c uncomment: struct xfsstats xfsstats if the
compile bombs. (fixed in -shawn8 coming tonight)

xfs-2.4.19-ac1-shawn7   against 2.4.18 vanilla. (Feb 26th, 2002)

Contains:

2.4.19-pre1                     (Marcelo Tosatti)

Feb 26th, XFS CVS               (me)
IDE taskfile IO                 (Andre Hedrick in -ac1)
(kludge mode)

*NOTE: Quota appears to be fixed (finally). But I need more people to
confirm.

-shawn8 will have some more changes (see ChangeLog on site).


should -shawn8 work, I will begin the merge of -mjc.

Shawn.

You will find the patch a little broken with asm symlink, ignore these and
CREDITS.

Re: ANNOUNCEMENT: 2.4.19-pre1-ac2-xfs-shawn8 released - important

[Shawn Starr]

xfs_utils.c:35: storage size of `xfsstats' isn't known
make[3]: *** [xfs_utils.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-xfs-shawn8/fs/xfs'

This is expected, if you compile EXT2/EXT3 with XFS (all). A fix is coming
tomorrow.

I have compiled it with preempt patch from Robert Love (just one line
of manual merge) and it works fine.

What change did you have to make with rml's patch? Some people are
wondering. I haven't tried it yet.

A very trivial change, I have just merged this one by hand :

***************
*** 318,323 ****
  	unsigned long policy;
  	unsigned long cpus_allowed;
  	unsigned int time_slice;
  
  	task_t *next_task, *prev_task;
  
--- 322,328 ----
  	unsigned long policy;
  	unsigned long cpus_allowed;
  	unsigned int time_slice;
+ 	unsigned long flags;
  
  	task_t *next_task, *prev_task;
  
Otherwise, the patch apply cleanly.
I attach you the corrected patch (I don't knwo why, it is
significiantly larger than the original patch, I have used diff -Naur,
I hope I don't get lost when I did it, it is surely better to use the
original patch and to do the little merge by hand)

The 19-pre2-ac2 preempt patch worked as-is, no changes needed. What you
would need to do after you add your stuff is another matter, of course.
