Hi Jeon,

The write packing code looks good to me.
However, the separation of read and write packing to different patches is
very important to us.
As I specified before, we decided to enable only the write packing. We
plan to thoroughly test the write packing (edge cases and error handling)
and will not test the read packing. Therefore we would like to have the
ability to get only the write packing code.
In my previous comment I talked about the risk of mainlining a “dead”
code. Every feature that is integrated is considered to be fully tested
and in the future it might be enabled, assuming that is was already
tested.
Can you please specify how you tested the read and write packing? Did you
perform edge cases and error handling tests? Do you have test code that
can be shared?

Thanks,
