We'll get the tests posted soon. We express hope that someday this becomes part of Linux Kernel in some form or the other. From test engineers point of view, we would like to have those test case in LTP. This will give access of the test cases to a huge community of test engineers. We would like to know if you would be interested to contribute these test cases to the Linux Test Project (http://ltp.sourceforge.net/) under GPLv2 with somebody sending the Patch with a DCO Signoff. I would like to put it here: http://ltp.cvs.sourceforge.net/ltp/ltp/testcases/kernel/fs/ Regards-- Subrata > > -- ljk > > Willy Tarreau wrote: > > On Mon, Jun 23, 2008 at 02:19:14PM +0200, Xose Vazquez Perez wrote: > >> hi, > >> > >> HP has released AdvFS, a file system that was developed by Digital > >> Equipment Corp > >> and continues to be part of HP's Tru64 operating system. > > > > Wow!
