Hi all, this series switches the log writing and log recovery code to use bios directly, and remove various special cases from the buffer cache code. Note that I have developed it on top of the previous series of log item related cleanups, so if you don't have that applied there is a small conflict. To make life easier I have pushed out a git branche here: git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/xfs.git xfs-log-bio Gitweb: http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/xfs.git/shortlog/refs/heads/xfs-log-bio
