Most appreciated. I will apply, I've been slow fixing shawn4 because I'm
in the process of merging some of my trees into a more clean structure.

I can't use bk because it won't let me merge 2.4.17 vanilla, and SGI's
CVS tree into one with tag/branches. CVS does (sort of) so I have to
keep CVS.

For my custom branch, I have bk setup, I can just import the changes
from XFS tree as a GNU diff and merge it in.

As for rmap, I'll just keep getting the diffs from his website, since I
don't want another kernel tree to deal with :-)

You will find the patch a little broken with asm symlink, ignore these and

This is expected, if you compile EXT2/EXT3 with XFS (all). A fix is coming

I have compiled it with preempt patch from Robert Love (just one line
of manual merge) and it works fine.

What change did you have to make with rml's patch? Some people are
wondering. I haven't tried it yet.

A very trivial change, I have just merged this one by hand :

***************
*** 318,323 ****
unsigned long policy;
unsigned long cpus_allowed;
unsigned int time_slice;

task_t *next_task, *prev_task;

--- 322,328 ----
unsigned long policy;
unsigned long cpus_allowed;
unsigned int time_slice;
+ unsigned long flags;

task_t *next_task, *prev_task;

Otherwise, the patch apply cleanly.
I attach you the corrected patch (I don't knwo why, it is
significiantly larger than the original patch, I have used diff -Naur,
I hope I don't get lost when I did it, it is surely better to use the
original patch and to do the little merge by hand)

The 19-pre2-ac2 preempt patch worked as-is, no changes needed. What you
would need to do after you add your stuff is another matter, of course.
