Just wanted to interject something amidst the talk about huge xfs patches... the xfs filesystem code is pretty big, yes, but the core xfs-only kernel patch for 2.4.13 is only around 48k. That includes context lines, Makefiles, Configure.help, MAINTAINERS, Changes, and other documentation that's really not a change to the kernel. Yes, XFS affects the core kernel. But it's not as much code as the conventional wisdom seems to think it is. :) -Eric (Plenty of snipping below) Sean Elble wrote: > > The XFS patch is huge, > > > Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx> wrote: > > this is a pretty big patch even just > > counting the core changes. > > > > Ingo -- Eric Sandeen XFS for Linux http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs sandeen@xxxxxxx SGI, Inc. |
