I get compile error when builing ext4 patch queue with iget-stop-ext4-from-using-iget-and-read_inode-try.patch applied, against 2.6.24-git14. It seems iget-stop-ext4-from-using-iget-and-read_inode-try.patch depends on patches: [PATCH 01/31] Add an ERR_CAST() macro to complement ERR_PTR and co. [PATCH 03/32] IGET: Introduce a function to register iget failure Mingming > That should also help > reduce the number of inter-patch queue dependencies. > > Regards, > > - Ted > > > - > 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 - 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
