Since the call doesn't seem to be happening, here's my status. On 16 Sep I sent these bug fixes to Trond for 3.1: Jim Rees (2): pnfsblock: fix size of upcall message pnfsblock: fix return code confusion Peng Tao (3): pnfsblock: fix NULL pointer dereference pnfsblock: fix writeback deadlock pnfsblock: add missing rpc_put_mount and path_put These are the ones I think are important enough, and low enough risk to anyone else, that they should be considered for 3.1 even though it's late in the release cycle. They have not shown up upstream. Trond? On 22 Sep I sent these to Trond for 3.2. I believe these are all in Benny's tree now (sorry about that, Benny): Jim Rees (2): pnfsblock: fix return code confusion pnfsblock: fix size of upcall message Peng Tao (8): SUNRPC/NFS: make rpc pipe upcall generic pnfsblock: add missing rpc_put_mount and path_put pnfs: make _set_lo_fail generic - pnfsblock: init pg_bsize properly pnfs: recoalesce when ld write pagelist fails pnfs: recoalesce when ld read pagelist fails pnfsblock: fix NULL pointer dereference pnfsblock: fix writeback deadlock This includes all the bug fixes for 3.1 plus some others that are less important or higher risk. Notice that "init pg_bsize properly" is wrong and should not be used. Benny, you may want to remove this from your tree, or I can send a revert patch. Missing from these is one more, "nfs4: serialize layoutcommit" that's important but I somehow missed it. The recent automount changes really screwed us up but I just built a kernel from Linus's latest, which includes the patches from Trond, and it passes all tests so I think we're still ok for 3.1. -- 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
