Re: reiser4 for 2.6.33?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As I told already for reiser4 inclusion we need the following:

(a) plugin design document;
(b) full description of what is going on in respond to memory
   pressure notifications;

The (a) is not yet ready and I don't have a time to explain
personally to everyone why the plugin stuff is not crappy. It will
be posted in a magazine with proper background, because all
Namesys projects traditionally have academic sources. So wait...

Actually there is no hurry. Taking into account common situation
with file systems, I am not afraid that reiser4 will get obsolete.

Thanks,
Edward.

It's autumn[0] already and even with 2.6.32 not quite ready yet, let me be the one asking the inevitable question: What are the plans for reiser4 being included in 2.6.33? The diffstat for the 2.6.31 patch looks rather promising, at least to me:

$ diffstat reiser4-for-2.6.31.patch | grep -v fs/reiser4
Documentation/Changes | 12 Documentation/filesystems/reiser4.txt | 75 fs/Kconfig | 1 fs/Makefile | 1 fs/fs-writeback.c | 5 include/linux/fs.h | 3 include/linux/mm.h | 1 mm/filemap.c | 3 mm/page-writeback.c | 26 170 files changed, 77581 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)

Or maybe it can find a place in -staging if there are still strong objections against a general inclusion?

Thanks,
Christian.
