Sistemele instalate deja cu v1.0 se pot upgrada fara probleme. -----Forwarded Message----- From: Eric Sandeen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: XFS for Linux 1.0.1 Released SGI is pleased to announce the 1.0.1 release of XFS for Linux. The web pages will be updated in a short while, but in the meantime, files are available under ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/Release-1.0.1/ This URL contains the following directories: kernel_rpms/linux-2.4.5/ The 2.4.5 kernel RPMS are vanilla 2.4.5 kernels (Linus' tree) with the XFS bits added. kernel_rpms/RHlinux-2.4.3/ The 2.4.3 kernel RPMS are based on Red Hat's 7.1 2.4.3 kernel version - only the XFS bits have been changed. These RPMS are intended for anyone using XFS on RH 7.1 in an environment where they need Red Hat's kernel improvements, and they do not wish to jump kernel versions to get XFS improvements. kernel_patches/ The patches provided are for linux-2.4.5. They are now broken into 2 patches, one for files unique to XFS, and one that modifies existing core Linux files. kdb patches are also provided for debugging. See the README file in the patches/ directory for patching instructions. cmd_tars/ cmd_rpms/ Userspace commands are provided both as tarballs and as RPMs. installer/ The installer/ directory contains a modified Red Hat 7.1 installer that will allow you to install a Red Hat 7.1 system on XFS. If you already used the XFS 1.0 system installer, there is no need to re-install, simply upgrade your RPMs. A new system installer was provided for a few people who, due to bugs in the 1.0 release, were unable to use the 1.0 installer. CHANGES since 1.0: ================== Some of the ACL library's functions have been changed to comply with the POSIX ACL (P1003.1e) withdrawn standard. These changes make it simpler for the Samba code to work with XFS. A bug was also fixed for chacl -d. General code cleanup unused code & gratuitous prototypes were removed unused debug checking were removed compiler warnings were fixed Irix DMAPI bug fix merged Unmount of dirty filesystem speeded up inode fields pared down, shrinking inode by 60-70 bytes Optimizations based on kernel profiling made Changes made to help with compiler independence (but egcs-2.91.66 is still preferred & tested at SGI) ATIME not updated for extended attribute or ACL changes Default BIOSIZE changed to 4k to fix some db-related size issues "Best" AG size changed from 1GB to 4GB when the filesystem exceeds 64GB Pick up mount options parsed by the VFS layer (noatime, readonly) LVM snapshotting capability added vnode tracing and xfs debug removed from config options Various memory handling improvements made NFS behavior improved Filesystem initialization messages removed Various changes andn enhancements made to xfs test scripts -L option added to mkfs.xfs to support filesystem labels Documentation updates added userspace man tools moved to /usr/share/man for most systems Looping bug in repquota under some glibc variants fixed xfsdump/restore fixes for remote tapes fixes for nfs server support including panics in during mixed local and remote access -- Florin Andrei --- Send e-mail to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' with 'unsubscribe rlug' to unsubscribe from this list.
