    Subject2.5.70-mm1

    http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/2.5/2.5.70-mm1.gz

    Will appear soon at

    ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.70/2.5.70-mm1/

    . A number of fixes against the ext3 work which Alex and I have been doing.
    This code is stable now. I'm using it on my main SMP desktop machine.

    These are major changes to a major filesystem. I would ask that
    interested parties now subject these patches to stresstesting and to
    performance testing. The performance gains on SMP will be significant.

    . I dropped the kexec patches. Mainly because the sheer extent of the -mm
    diffs is getting in the way of other work, and the kexec patches
    significantly altered the arch/i386 code where other things are happening.




    Changes since 2.5.69-mm9:
