April was a relatively quite month in XFS development, partially because most XFS developers traveled to San Francisco for the Linux Filesystem and Storage Summit and the first XFS developers meeting co hosted at the Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit. The XFS development tree only saw a series to reduce ilock hold times and a few patches merged. Traffic on the mailing list list has been a bit more busy, with a few patchset being reposted again and again after various updates. Features still scheduled for Linux 3.5 include: removal of the xfsbufd daemon, various other cleanups of the buffer layer, moving CIL commits into a background thread and thus reducing the impact on threads causing the commits, as well as a bigger than usual set of cleanups and fixes. The user space side as been extremely slow with no patches applied and very few posted to the mailing list. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
