Hi I went through the patches in Alasdair's patchset and tried to sort them for seriousness. These should be sent immediatelly (before 2.6.33): dm-raid1-fail-writes-if-errors-are-not-handled-and-log-fails.patch # 76000 - fixes a regression introduced in 2.6.33-rc1 - should be sent to Linus before 2.6.33 goes out - doesn't need to be applied to -stable dm-raid1-fix-null-pointer-dereference-in-suspend.patch # 72253 - fixes a serious bug (crash) that existed even in previous kernels - should be sent before 2.6.33 goes out - should be sent to -stable dm-stripe-avoid-divide-by-zero-with-invalid-stripe-count.patch # 76915 dm-snapshot-persistent-annotate-work_queue-as-on-stack.patch # 75065 - minor bugs, but the patches are very simple, so that they can be sent to Linus now, there is minimal change of breaking something multipath patches - let Kiyoshi Ueda decide, I am not familiar with mpath well enough Mikulas -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
