Message-Id: <1229513423-19105-1-git-send-email-swhiteho@redhat.com> Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 11:29:59 +0000 From: swhiteho@...hat.com To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, cluster-devel@...hat.com Subject: GFS2: Pre-pull patch posting In preparation for the next merge window, here is the current content of the GFS2 git tree. Firstly, we have one new feature, which is support for the FIEMAP ioctl. That patch does touch some code outside of GFS2 itself, but its the only patch in this series which does so. The remaining patches are mostly clean up and bug fixes, as usual. They are working towards a point where I can submit a patch to finally merge the lock_dlm module (not dlm itself I should emphasise) into GFS2. That is a large patch and a preliminary version has already been posted to cluster-devel. My plan is to put that patch into my -nmw git tree as the first patch for the following merge window to give it maximum exposure. The other highlight of this patch series, is a patch which removes the two daemons (gfs2_scand and gfs2_glockd) and replaces them with a "shrinker" routine registered with the VM. As expected, this also reduces the code size. We are also expecting do do a similar thing with the GFS2 quota data strucutures at some point in the future.
