The for-stable and for-stable-2.6.27 branches can be found in the ext4 git tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git The patches in these branches are attached below; I didn't port commit 2acf2c2 to 2.6.27 since it really requires commit 22208d (ext4: Fix file fragmentation during large file write), which was judged too invasive for a 2.6.27.y backport. If folks can test out the for-stable and/or the for-stable-2.6.27 branches, I would appreciate it before I send these patches to stable@kernel.org. - Ted mainline 2.6.28 2.6.27 commit-description -------------------------------------------------------------------- c88ccea 5e207aa 765ba56 jbd2: Fix return value of jbd2_journal_start_commit() 9eddacf 97fef01 b9eab5a Revert "ext4: wait on all pending commits in ext4_sync_fs()" 7f5aa21 48320fb 19815ad jbd2: Avoid possible NULL dereference in jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_t 7be2baa 62cd8c3 b88c4d9 ext4: Fix to read empty directory blocks correctly in 64k ba44391 bcc855a 4987213 ext4: Fix lockdep warning d794bf8 58cf82c b700ed3 ext4: Initialize preallocation list_head's properly 2acf2c2 3d9eef3 ------ ext4: Implement range_cyclic in ext4_da_writepages instead of write_c 0905426 09b7e0c ed858e5 ext4: Fix NULL dereference in ext4_ext_migrate()'s error handling --ew6BAiZeqk4r7MaW--
