Roadmap:
-2.6.35 Inclusion in mainline as an experimental mount option
- => approximately 2-3 months to merge window
- => needs to be in xfs-dev tree in 4-6 weeks
- => code is nearing readiness for review
-
-2.6.37 Remove experimental tag from mount option
- => should be roughly 6 months after initial merge
- => enough time to:
- => gain confidence and fix problems reported by early
- adopters (a.k.a. guinea pigs)
- => address worst performance regressions and undesired
- behaviours
- => start tuning/optimising code for parallelism
- => start tuning/optimising algorithms consuming
- excessive CPU time
-
2.6.39 Switch default mount option to use delayed logging
=> should be roughly 12 months after initial merge
=> enough time to shake out remaining problems before next round of
