    Subject[PATCH/URL] Endian Safe ReiserFS

    I've just completed my port of ReiserFS to be endian safe. The patch
    has been tested successfully on x86 (UP/SMP), ppc (UP/SMP), and
    UltraSparc (UP). I've received reports that it also works successfully
    on mips (UP).

    The patch preserves the little-endian disk format, so a disk can be
    moved across architectures. The on-disk format has not been altered, so
    the code can be patched in without disruption to users with existing
    reiserfs filesystems (like myself :)). There are no VFS changes.

    Due to the patches affecting all of ReiserFS, the patch is quite
    large (180K), and so in the interests of preserving bandwidth for
    everyone, I've decided to post a URL to the patch instead.

    The patch can be found at:
    http://penguinppc.org/~jeffm/releases/endian-safe-reiserfs-for-2.4.4-pre7.final.bz2

    More information, including the endian safe utiltities, can be found
    at http://penguinppc.org/~jeffm.
