Hi all, This is the eighth revision of a patchset that adds to XFS kernel support for mapping multiple file logical blocks to the same physical block (reflink/deduplication), implements the beginnings of online metadata scrubbing and preening, and implements reverse mapping for the realtime device. There shouldn't be any incompatible on-disk format changes, pending a thorough review of the patches within. The patches in this series fix various errors, bring the documentation up to date as of kernel 4.6, and add entirely new chapters about the reverse mapping and reference count btrees. The new log redo items are also documented. If you're going to start using this mess, you probably ought to just pull from my github trees for kernel[1], xfsprogs[2], xfstests[3], xfs-docs[4], and man-pages[5]. The kernel patches in the git trees should apply to 4.8-rc3; xfsprogs patches to for-next; and xfstest to master. The patches have been xfstested with x64, ppc64, and armhf; all tests in the clone and rmap groups pass. AFAICT they don't cause any new failures for the 'auto' group. This is an extraordinary way to eat your data. Enjoy! Comments and questions are, as always, welcome. --D [1] https://github.com/djwong/linux/tree/djwong-devel [2] https://github.com/djwong/xfsprogs/tree/djwong-devel [3] https://github.com/djwong/xfstests/tree/djwong-devel [4] https://github.com/djwong/xfs-documentation/tree/djwong-devel [5] https://github.com/djwong/man-pages/tree/djwong-devel _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
