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

 



Hi,

the btrfs-progs 4.4-rc1 has been tagged. This is a heads-up before the release
(ETA tmorrow). Please give it some testing.

I'll write a more detailed changelog for 4.4, but here are some notable changes:

* manual pages enhanced (btrfs, mkfs, mount, filesystem, balance)
* mkfs.btrfs --data dup
* new/enhanced balance filters (kernel 4.4+):
  * limit=min..max
  * stripes=min..max
  * usage=min..max
* free space tree (aka space_cache=v2, kernel 4.5+)
* fix: fi usage and mixed block groups
* debug-tree: -t understands chunk tree (3) and tree root (1)

Minor bugfixes are still accepted, the rest will go to the next development
cycle.
