| |
Hello!
Following this mail, there are nine patches necessary for Lustre support in 2.6. The patches are against latest 2.6 bk snapshot. Compared to previous sets of patches, this one does not change existing structure and field names therefore leaving kernel VFS API completely intact. Also raw operations approach is changed, extra inode operation is introduced that is supposed to be called at the end of parent lookup and do necessary operations, if possible. Of course it would be great if these patches would be included into the kernel right away (and that is one of the reasons this set of patches keeps old API intact). Also there were at least some interest in some of the patches from other parties (e.g. Trond Myklebust was interested in some intent changes as I remember) and we are ready to work with those so that the patches will suit their needs as well.
