Hi,

I have released nilfs-2.0.19 and nilfs-utils-2.0.16.

nilfs-2.0.19 is the latest standalone module maintained for older
kernels.  This release backported several bug fixes and some
problem-solving updates from the mainline kernel; the following
changes are included:

 * fix potential hang in nilfs_error on errors=remount-ro
 * add missing reader's lock in nilfs_ioctl_sync
 * fix potential leak of dirty data on umount
 * show missing mount options in /proc/mounts.
 * change mount option to disable write barriers; "nobarrier" is
   used instead of "barrier=off".
 * add "norecovery" mount option
 * use mnt_want_write in ioctls where write access is needed
 * apply readahead for recovery on mount
 * sync superblock by nilfs thread instead of periodic write_super
   callback
 * update mailing list address
 * coding style fixes

The changes of nilfs-utils include manpage updates, a build fix for
newer glibc, and a mount option to set protection_period.

The updated packages are available at

Thanks,
Ryusuke Konishi
