Hello all, sorry for a user-level question,
I have a board based on PLX7821 aka OX820 ARM SoC. It is not supported in the mainline kernel; the vendor supplied the source of the kernel 2.6.31 with necessary updates for this platform, and it works. I understand that there have been no successful attempts to bring support of this platform to newer kernels. I would like to use btrfs on this system, but it is labelled "experimental" in the kernel. My question is: is it "safe" to use btrfs as it is in 2.6.31? In other words, where there "data destroying" bugs found and fixed since then? If the answer is yes, then is it possible (and how difficult) to compile newer btrfs code against this kernel, or backport the fixes? Thanks, Eugene
