Distributed storage. I'm pleased to announce the 10'th release of the distributed storage subsystem (DST). This is a maintenance release and includes bug fixes and simple feature extensions only. DST allows to form a storage on top of local and remote nodes and combine them into linear or mirroring setup, which in turn can be exported to remote nodes. Short changelog: * fixed bug with XFS metadata update (it can provide slab pages to the DST, so it is not allowed to transfer them using ->sendpage()) * fixed async error completion path * extended netlink communication channel to report errors back to userspace * DST name is now "The 10'th dynasty of smuggled slothes" * number of fixes for userspace DST target Great thanks to Matthew Hodgson <matthew@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> for debugging and fixes for userspace DST target and preliminary netlink extension patches. Overall list of features of the DST can be found on project's homepage: http://tservice.net.ru/~s0mbre/old/?section=projects&item=dst Thank you.
