Subject: which kernel version should I submit patch ?

Hi, list.

I find these days 2.6.21 released. If I will submit patches for ext4dev,
should I generate the patch against 2.6.21 ?

Best regards.

If you find a bug in ext4 on 2.6.21 - yes, generate against 2.6.21.

Make sure its not already fixed in -mm or Ted's ext4 tree.

Badari:

Thanks, maybe Ted's tree is a good choice :-)

Best regards.
