[patch 1/8] 2.6.22-rc4-mm2 buffered write fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here are several fixes for issues that Dmitriy found, and also several
fixlets for non-compiling filesystems.

These only caused one trivial down-stack reject, so I won't worry about
sending you the fix for that.

These have had some testing with various filesystems, block sizes, and
journal modes with fsx-linux, fsstress and swapping-kbuilds.

Dmitriy noticed some weird code I had in __page_symlink that is wrong.

Fixes: fs-introduce-write_begin-write_end-and-perform_write-aops.patch
