You'd basically just be pulling my tree (Christoph's is just my nfsd tree with his patches on top, and I've been testing with exactly that locally, just putting off pushing it out till we decide this.) So anyway, fine with me if you want to just pull that into the xfs tree. Mine's ready whenever, so if I send my pull pretty soon after the merge window and you send it a little later then we still keep the property that Linus's merge still has a diffstat only in our respective areas. (OK, it's a little more complicated because I've got the same arrangement with jlayton, so the order is jlayton's lock pull, then my nfsd pull, then your xfs pull. Is this getting too complicated? jlayton and I are both ready to so and I think it'd work.) I'm also fine with duplicating those few patches, or whatever. --b. -- 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
