I've noticed that the patches I posted here two years ago about an ioctl to allow userspace to wait for deferred ops to complete aren't included in the "has all patches posted to mailing list" git repo. Is this an oversight or is there a problem with the proposed architecture or implementation?
The proposed architecture is, there is an IOCTL to wait for deferred activity to complete, and it takes a flag field listing possible deferred activities that are being waited for. Only one was defined in the submitted patch, to wait for completion of removal of dead trees, with the hope that future deferred things would register a bit with the ... The whole picture is in the introduction to the last submitted version of the patch, http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/8668 Is the patch as seen there good, and were I to update it to apply against current source would there be any problem with tracking it for mainstream inclusion?
