Sender: owner-linux-xfs@oss.sgi.com Precedence: bulk Return-Path: X-Orcpt: rfc822;linux-xfs-outgoing I was able to compile a linux kernel with the xfs file system using the "Linux XFS: CVS Download Instructions". The only problem I ran into was the need to add couple of stub files, xfsrtstubs.c and xfsdmapistubs.c to the make file in linux/fs/xfs. I was able to create a xfs file system and have loaded it with lots of file. No problem so far. I would like to contribute to the effort. I could work on the fsr port. Which means I probaly should do the "Finish the implementing the syssgi() command" work item first if it is not alrady taken. I run a dmf system managing about 4 million files and 16TB of data on an origin 2000. I used the sysgi bulkstat functions, the attributes functions and the sgi handle fucntions.
