Can you be a bit more specific? Did you actually look or did you just get hives when you saw "glue code"? The current glue code is very far from what was in the original patch set. In the first set there were all sorts of abstractions which have been purged and almost entirely removed. The current "glue code" really just partitions off the vfs interaction from the file system internal operations. This partitioning serves a purpose: it allows the code to be easily integrated into applications etc (ie outside of the kernel) and also allows the multi-version code to be supported more cleanly. Multi-version is incredibly important in the RealWorld (TM). > Also make sure it passes the xfstests QA suite > (http://git.kernel.org/?p=fs/xfs/xfstests-dev.git;a=summary), which > might need a bit work to be made run depending on how quirky your > mkfs/fsck tools are. Thanks. I'll try those. It does pass fsx and some other tests. -- Charles -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
