Hi
I uploaded new shared snapshots here:
http://people.redhat.com/mpatocka/patches/kernel/new-snapshots/devel/
changes:
- Broken to separate patches, one patch per file. The last patch adds all
the files to Makefile and makes it all compile. It allows you to ack
patches individually. I didn't use stubs to compile intermediate patches,
the problem is that if multiple patches modify the same file, general
modifications to the code become harder. With one-patch-per-file I can
edit it with normal text editor and quilt regenerates the patches.
- Document on-disk format in dm-multisnap-mikulas-struct.h
- More functions are commented
- Removed /*printk ... */ statements. I left some #ifdefed debug routines,
they are non-trivial to write again
- Fixed a bug on big-endian systems
- Exposed interface for snapshots-of-snapshots, tested that they work
