Haven't merged in access & auth cache -shrinker changes. Also: state-recovery thread deadlock still being worked. Rearranged rpc-task structure fields to shrink struct size. That done, will send changelog to list. 2. State of pNFS tree (bhalevy) - [distracted, missed some notes] - note also cleaned up gfs2 branch 3. Mailing list change - no problems reported, except Benny getting repeatedly bounced off? He'll investigate farther. No response from postmaster. 4. Client 4.1. Client pNFS status - stable/unstable write-discussion. - Andy notes: usually tests with writes to gfs2 turned on, even though not really optimal (and will stay turned off in mainstream). - Benny: working on some io path bugs; will discuss on mailing list bugs. Ricardo: note Fred may be working on same area. (E.g.: on "done" path, two closes (one of layout_commit context, one layout return on close path?) were racing with each other? Looks like there may be patches that fix that. Also saw stable object-layout write problems.) - Alexandros doing some work on layout-management, close to sending. - what about ipv6?: reports are that it's work; not sure anyone's been thinking about it hard, though. (What about device cache? Andy should take a look. What about gfs2 data server references? Ricardo says this was all "priority B" on client.) 4.2. Client state management design documentation (trond) - some progress last week, none this. 5. Server 5.1. Todo's for minimal 4.1 server (bfields) - Benny's patches - pynfs testing 5.2. pnfs - question about exports. - exofs; did some testing, no report yet (distracted by some bugs) 6. redhat status (steved) - nothing to report 7. bakeathon plans - ann arbor: going fine - boston: still waiting on hotel details. 8. new business - none 9. next meeting - same time (note Benny and Boaz expect to miss it). --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
