I've seen email from Jan that the release is green from his side.
(haven't got it because we had an email outgate in the SUSE and it seems
some emails were lost :(, if you get errors for my suse email account do
not hestitate to resend).

What is the status from the rest of you?

From my side, I've fixed a few problem I've found but there are still
two things I want to fix before the release.

One is aligment bug causing aiocp with O_DIRECT exit with EINVAL on
s390x with 4096 block size. That should be fixed with block size
autodetection for O_DIRECT.

And the second is with the rewrite of the exec* testcases (without the p
in the name). The problem is that the machinery that runs tests in SUSE
does not execute the testcases in the $LTPROOT/testcases/bin directory,
and these testcases fail to find the child binary. Solution I have in
mind is to create a function similar to tst_dataroot() that will fill a
buffer with a path to the binary (so that the tests works both in git
checkout and executed from installed tree). Is anybody opposed to this
idea?
