[RFC][Update 0/16]extents and 48bit ext3/4 patches

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

 



Hello!

Here is the updated ext3/4 patches to support 48bit ext4 filesystem.

http://ext2.sourceforge.net/48bitext3/patches/latest/

Changes since last post includes

- bug fixes in 64bit JBD changes, which breaks non-extents 32 bit ext3
filesystem
- sync up on disk super block structure with e2fsprogs
- add initial handing of uninitialized extents
- removed 32 bit ext3 bug fixes patches from this series as they are
folded to current linus git tree.


Patches against 2.6.17-git13, tested on both 32 bit and 64 bit arch,
survived fsx test on 32bit ext3(mounted w/o extent, with CONFIG_LBD
enabled) and 48 bit ext4(mounted with extents).

Appreciate any comments and feedbacks.

Thanks,

Mingming
