It just isn't :-( we've submitted (most of) it to Alan Cox and his kernel is *much* more up-to-date than Linus'. I don't know just why the patches haven't been accepted by Linus. He is apparently happy to completely replace the VM but won't fix some fairly serious bugs elsewhere...bizarre. > 2. Should I write a bug-report to the xfs-guys?

I do know that they include some LVM patches in their distribution so it's certainly worth asking them nicely to upgrade them I suppose. Feel free to quote my email..I don't think I wrote anything actionable :-) patrick
