| Subject | [GFS2 & DLM] Proposed patches for 2.6.20 merge window [0/54] | From | Steven Whitehouse <> | Date | Mon, 05 Feb 2007 14:07:05 +0000 |

Hi,
Following this message are the patches which currently make up the GFS2 -nmw (next merge window) git tree. Mostly they are bug fixes and clean ups, but there are one or two other changes, the highlights being:
[26/54] Changes "writeback" mounts to not require buffer heads in writepages and also results in fewer I/Os. [29/54] This is probably the most notable since it effectively shrinks the amount of memory per struct gfs2_inode by half. [27/54] Removes the attempt at directory readahead in readdir and results in a substantial speed improvement for readdir without noticably slowing readdir+stat performance.
Steve.
