A full design document is on the ext4 wiki[1]. Please see the cover letter for the kernel patches for a more thorough summary of this work. Please have a look at the design document and patches, and please feel free to suggest any changes. I will be at LPC next week if anyone wishes to discuss, debate, or protest. --D [1] https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Metadata_Checksums
