Subject:  [PATCH] reiserfs v3 patches for 2.6.6-rc2
Date:  Fri, 23 Apr 2004 15:54:06 -0400

Hello all,

Thanks to Andrew for helping to test and feed many of the reiserfs
patches into mainline.  I've rediffed against the current -mm and linus
trees:

ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mason/patches/reiserfs/2.6.6-rc2

The directory includes a series file to tell you the order to apply the
patches.  The same series file should work with -mm kernels as well
right now.

New in this patch set is data=journal support, which fills out the
compatibility list with the 2.4.x reiserfs data logging patches.  Other
patches include:

xattrs and acls (Jeff Mahoney)
warning/error messages that include device names (Jeff Mahoney)
quotas
block allocator improvements
metadata readahead for some types of tree searches

data=journal is experimental, but most of the code changes don't kick in
unless you mount with data=journal.

The rest of the patches should be stable.

-chris
