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

 



Hello everyone.

Please, find at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/reiser4/files/reiser4-for-linux-3.x/

Changes since 2.6.39:

Marcin Baczyński :

. Port reiser4-for-2.6.39 to 3.2

Ivan Shapovalov :

. Adjust reiser4-for-3.2 to 3.5;
. Use umode_t as file mode type;
. show_options() takes dentry;
. Use d_make_root() instead of d_alloc_root();
. Use clear_inode() instead of end_writeback();
. Adjust to changes in encode_fh() API;
. lock ->i_mutex in reiser4_sync_file_common();
. Introduce INODE_{INC,DROP,CLEAR,SET}_NLINK macros,
  which use library function for i_nlink manipulations;
. Do not make reiser4_permission_common() bail out on
  rcu-walk;
. Don't clear nlink in reiser4's do_create_vfs_child().

Edward Shishkin :

. Reserve space in reiser4_write_begin() properly.
  Fix deadlock (reiser4 lock ordering violation):
  release page lock in reiser4_dirty_inode() before
  acquiring a longterm lock;


                 Current status


The bug in the balancing primitive INSERT_FLOW (which
led to inconsistent key ordering) is not yet fixed.
So the following features can lead to data corruption:

. tail packing in the default file plugin;
. transparent compression.

Fsck will fix everything, however, it can be rather
annoying to check production systems frequently..

Thanks,
Edward.
