Keep in mind that those problems are generic, other filesystems also suffer: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg114123.html I don't see any recent compaction-related patches in Linus' tree at https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/mm/ ..so it seems they have not been merged yet. So unless they get merged in the last minute it looks like 4.8 will be DOA. -h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
