Hi, I have uploaded a snapshot of my XFS filesystem port for FreeBSD to http://people.freebsd.org/~kan/xfs. This snapshot allows XFS partitions to be mounted read-only under FreeBSD. The port is based on XFS sources available from SGI for Linux, so it is covered by GPL and should be handled appropriately. The read-only XFS access was quite stable in my testing and managed to survive through multiple 'make -j12 buildworld' rounds with src/ stored on XFS partition, so I think it is a good time for a wider community to take it for a spin and start reporting bugs/panics that I overlooked. This is still a work in progress, so do not try to use it unless you are familiar with kernel debugging procedures and willing to share your kernel.debug+xfs.ko+vmcore files with me. Patches are of course most welcome too. There is a lot to be done still and any help counts. I would like to thank Russell Cattelan and Craig Rodrigues for helping me with this work. -- Alexander KabaevReceived on Mon Mar 21 2005 - 19:55:16 UTC
