snapshot 2004.03.26 + linux 2.6.5 = build error
hi there, today i applied latest snapshot to linux kernel 2.6.5 and tried to build it. patch didn't apply cleanly, there were some hunks and a reject on arch/sparc/kernel/init_task.c which looked trivial to fix. problem arrived on reiser4 kernel module (i'm using as module with no problems), build error follows: CC [M] fs/reiser4/as_ops.o fs/reiser4/as_ops.c: In function `move_inode_out_from_sync_inodes_loop': fs/reiser4/as_ops.c:570: error: structure has no member named `dirtied_when' make[4]: *** [fs/reiser4/as_ops.o] Error 1 any hotfix for this? cheers domenico -[ Domenico Andreoli, aka cavok --[ http://filibusta.crema.unimi.it/~cavok/gpgkey.asc ---[ 3A0F 2F80 F79C 678A 8936 4FEE 0677 9033 A20E BC50

data=ordered patch for 2.6.5?
i looked through all linus's changelogs for .4-.5. i see a few fixes, but nothing about ordering. i thought it was going in soon. will it be in .6? i guess for .5 i'll have to wait for chris mason to make a patch set. -- Tom Vier [EMAIL PROTECTED] DSA Key ID 0x15741ECE

But that doesn't really matter since nobody's making much use of multiple parents yet. - Alex

IMHO, it's just ugly. But that's my main complaint with it, and it's just an opinion. Hmm. Looking at http://namesys.com/v4/pseudo.html just reminded me that the string ... is also used as a placeholder for multiple unspecified items (name1/name2/name3/ ... /nameN/name), and so writing ... in a manual/instructions could be confusing. While I would much prefer ..metas or even .metas over plain metas, I would have to agree with Hans that it is extremely unlikely that anyone would actually use such a name. I don't think it's a showstopper. -- Hubert Chan [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.

Re: [PATCH] metas in reiserfs v4 snapshot 2004.03.26
From: Hans Reiser [EMAIL PROTECTED] these problems will not exist significantly in reality. Look at netapps and snapshots and clearcase and other filesystems, I remember wondering if .snapshot could be a problem when netapps were new and it was never a problem. Notice though that that filename begins with ., not a letter. This causes all programs to treat it specially. Also note that that filename is nine characters long, and therefore making a purely random collision less likely by more than four orders of magnitude. People who find it is a problem can #define it to something else. If 5 people bother to do so, I will be surprised. Many languages have reserved keywords. I REJECT THIS! I believe Ada is almost the only programming language without reserved words. The thing is a filesystem is NOT a programming language! It is designed to handle files with arbitrary names, no matter how odd. Only programmers deal with C, end users must deal with filesystem limitations. From: cami [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not sure if anyone has bothered to check if this would impose the limitation that people are worried about. From a quick glance, none of the linux distro's have ever had a file / directory called metas before. `metas` isn't even a real a word anyway (at least not an english word) so the chances of it being a big issue are very very small.. freshmeat.net's search shows not even one hit for the word metas and that pretty much the majority of linux/coding related projects.. Good point, search engines as evidence. The problem is you're only looking at distributions, which are going to be highly similar and you're completely missing end users. So let us take this to a full search engine and see what turns up... Hmm, roughly a million hits, let us look at a few samples: http://www.metas.ch/ http://vancouver-webpages.com/META/mk-metas.html http://www.metas.com.br/ http://metas.enfermeria21.com/ http://www.metas.com.mx/ Okay, out of one million hits, we randomly look at ten, and half feature metas in the URL somewhere. Going the other direction, Google indexes roughly 4 billion pages. If we guess the above search was representative, roughly 500,000 pages will include metas somewhere in the URL, possibly only as a hostname, but somewhere. So we've managed to collect 1 out of every 10,000 pages that Google indexes. Though we don't have a direct proof, I hope I've come close enough to scare you. Hans, what will it take for you to change your mind? -- (\___(\___(\__ --= 8-) EHM =-- __/)___/)___/) \ (| [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP 8881EF59 |) / \_ \ | _ -O #include stddisclaimer.h O- _ | / _/ \___\_|_/82 04 A1 3C C7 B1 37 2A*E3 6E 84 DA 97 4C 40 E6\_|_/___/
testing/questions about latest Reiser4
Does Reiser4 store stat data in real files, or some special way? Are pseudo files just representation of stat data stored a special way? Is it possible to do streams/forks with a plugin easily? I mounted latest Reiser4 snapshot + linux 2.6.4 with acl and xattr options but when I tried getfattr I received operation not supported? I'm using Reiser4 as root fs for some days now, and it is great! Only problem is whenever I run 'make' it always recompiles everything; perhaps this has to do with time stamps? Oh and fibration is cool :) How do I switch to the other fibration plugins for a directory?

Maybe we caught Google in the middle of some reindexing. But anyways... Most of the pages seem to be Spanish and Portuguese. Google translation translates metas as goals. Are there any Spanish or Portuguese speakers on this list to confirm that? Since goals is a fairly common word, it probably is a bad idea to use metas without at least some sort of prefix. -- Hubert Chan [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
