I am not sure how the series corrupted but I am glad that you catch that and updated with fallocate patches.:-) We don't need the ext4-fallocate-1b-fallocate_inode_op_fix.patch as Amit fixed the ext4_fallocate() return value type to match VFS fallocate() in takes 4, patch 5/6. I will update the series to reflect this and run test. I think Kalpak's patch to remove 32000 subdirs patch can be add to the ext4 patch queue as well.

But there are some bug-fix type or mount option patches that can try to target for rc2, what do you think? # New patch to fix whitespace before applying new patches whitespace.patch #New patch to remove unnecessary exported symbols ext4_remove_exported_symbles.patch # New patch to add mount option to turn off extents ext4_noextent_mount_opt.patch # Now Turn on extents feature by default ext4_extents_on_by_default.patch #New patch to propagate inode flags ext4-propagate_flags.patch #New patch to add extent sanity checks ext4-extent-sanity-checks.patch #New patch to free blocks when failed to insert an extent ext4-free-blocks-on-insert-extent-failure.patch Cheers, Mingming - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
