Hi,

With the two patches applied, xfs/179 can pass in 5.10.188. Otherwise I got

Please review if they are approriate for 5.10 stable.
Seems fine to me, but ... there is no maintainer for 5.10; is your
employer willing to support this LTS kernel?
Hi Darrick,

Thanks for your review! I think Amir is the maintainer for 5.10 😉. I can
help
if needed since our kernel is heavily based on 5.10 stable. We also run
tests
against 5.10 stable, that is why I send fixes patches for it.

Hi Greg,

Could you consider add the two to your list? Thank you!
Sorry, but as these would only be in th 5.10.y release, and not in any
newer stable kernel, you would have a regression if you moved to a newer
stable kernel branch, right?

Fair enough.

Because of that, no, I can't take this, nor should you want me to, as
you would have a regression if you upgraded, right?

I'll be glad to do so if we have backports for all relevant stable
kernels.


I found Ted had mentioned the two commits ([1]), so it probably make sense
to port them to 5.10 as well.
