Hi everyone,
I've just rebased the reflink patches against kernel 4.8-rc5 and the xfsprogs
dev branch:
https://github.com/djwong/linux/tree/for-dave-for-4.9-1 [17f66c42de]
https://github.com/djwong/xfsprogs/tree/for-dave-for-4.9-1 [7b015920a]
These branches should contain /only/ the patches needed to get reflink working:
no fsmap ioctl, no online scrub, and no realtime rmapbt. I'm publishing these
branches in the hopes of getting wider testing prior to the merge window. I
haven't heard any complaints for several weeks now.
I created these two branches partly because Brian was complaining about it
being a PITA to carve out a working branch. The patches haven't changed at all
since the giant mailing a couple of weeks ago.
-----------
For the latest development branch, check out the djwong-wtf branches on github:
https://github.com/djwong/linux/tree/djwong-wtf
https://github.com/djwong/xfsprogs/tree/djwong-wtf
Note that I'm in the middle of reworking the GETFSMAP ioctl to eliminate the
problems that Andreas pointed out last week, and reworking the getfsmap and
scrub code to eliminate buffer deadlocks when a btree loop exists, so the last
few patches are ... very scraggly.
