HEADS UP - HAMMER on-media format changed 12-May-2008
For those people testing HAMMER, the HAMMER on-media format has changed so you will have to newfs any HAMMER filesystems. I know I have said this before, but there's a very good chance that no more on-media changes will be made after this point. The official freeze of the on-media format will not occur until the 2.0 release, however. The testing of the reblocking and pruning code continues. There are still a handful of bugs related to parallel operations while ...

There are still numerous bugs in the reblocking and pruning code that are resulting in a small amount of corruption of the B-Tree. I am also going to do one more major change to the on-media format. As I test the reblocking and pruning code more and more, and also test HAMMER's performance, it has become apparent that the record abst...

Re: Linking with gcc runtime
[cc & reply-to kernel] )? We don't have varsyms enabled by default. I think we should investigate whether having crt files for every single c= ompiler is the right thing to do. maybe not, maybe yes. I know that I i= ntroduced them, but I didn't anticipate that there would be other consume= rs than the compiler itself. Anyways, what is emacs doing with these files? I know that pcc just hija= cks these crt files because it doesn't provide its own. I think it could also be parsed from...
