Hi,
I did compile a fresh 2.6.21.7 kernel from kernel.org (no distro patch, ),
and latest svn (3062) 0.7.X drbd.
After just 2 days of uptime, I did experience another crash.
I wonder if it is an XFS related bug, a DRBD one, or related to XFS on top of
DRBD.

Hello list,
As i want lvm on drbd and drbd for the whole disk, exclusive /boot, i needed
to find a way to keep two nearly identical /etc-directories.
This lead to the idea to put the /etc-directory on a cd-rw and let / be
handled completely via drbd/lvm.
Because the /etc-files are only read seld

Hello all,
For accessing memory-mapped 64bit-BAR regions of a PCI card, the
respective BAR regions has to be made accessible to the kernel using
ioremap() function. Then readl()/writel() can be used on the address
returned by ioremap().
I am doing the similar steps to access the BARs of a card.

If the castaddr passed to the userland API is NULL then don't overwrite the
existing castparam. This allows a different thread to cancel a lock request and
