Those are too mature I think to have a something as big a online defragger accepted. You might get a distro or two to pick up a patch like that add in during their packaging process. The ext4 patch is not yet in mainline, so you can see exactly what changes are needed for it to work with ext4. http://markmail.org/message/iv4gisf7jis4epuk It also looks like most of Akira Fujita's kernel posts have primarily related to this one patchset, so you can also sort of see how the patchset evolved over the course of the last year. http://markmail.org/search/?q=Akira+Fujita#query:Akira%20Fujita%20from%3A%22Akira%20Fujita%22+page:1+state:facets Greg -- Greg Freemyer Litigation Triage Solutions Specialist http://www.linkedin.com/in/gregfreemyer First 99 Days Litigation White Paper - http://www.norcrossgroup.com/forms/whitepapers/99%20Days%20whitepaper.pdf The Norcross Group The Intersection of Evidence & Technology http://www.norcrossgroup.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
