It's been well-tested on a few -stable boxes. Hopefully I didn't make
any mistakes when I moved the patchset to current. I wouldn't mind if
someone could go through it quickly to see if I left any filedes
references dangling. open() has changed a lot between stable and current.
I'm porting the low memory handling patchset to -current right now.
This one has been run through the gauntlet on a bunch of stable boxes
of mine and at Yahoo and has come up roses with over a week's worth
of continuous testing by Paul and I. We literally could not crash or
deadlock the test machine.
There are also some vfs/bio fixes going in, though neither Kirk nor I
are sure whether they fix the recently reported corruption problems.
They fix an NFS bug and some bogus_page related offset bugs that *could*
be responsible for the filesystem corruption that has been reported.
Hopefully people will at least get a KASSERT rather then a blown up
filesystem if the problem winds up being what we think it is.
All of this stuff will be MFC'd to stable after the release is rolled.
-Matt
