The newest alpha release (based on 2.0.27) of my rewrite of some essential VFS thingies can be found at
ftp://ftp.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/pub/Linux/schoebel/
An excerpt from the README there:
[ ... ]
I hope that at least the last feature will be widely accepted by all people typing rm * too fast ;-)
Please try the alpha code on test machines only (never on unrecoverable data) and give me feedback.
Please answer by email *only* (I don't read the kernel list) and please restrict your answer to questions dealing with the code.
Thomas I really like your work, I am also currently working heavily on speeding up the vfs, buffer cache, and page cache in 2.1.x. I also have some very clear ideas on how an MP safe Linux VFS needs to look.
I hope you will work with me so that these changes can get merged into 2.1.x, I would hate nothing more than to not see this work go into the kernel.
