Hi,
I now have a series of patches that adds Flex File layout support to the NFSv4 client
for pNFS.
I am now thinking about how to get them into head.
1 - I could put them up on reviews.freebsd.org, but since they are purely NFS patches
and there is no Flex file layout server to test against (except the one I have in
a projects tree under subversion), I doubt anyone will want to review them.
2 - I could create another projects tree under subversion but, again, I doubt anyone will
be able to test them and the result will be one large patch to merge into head.
3 - I can put them in head as a series of patches and then they will be usable for testing
of the pNFS server in the projects area.
Some of these patches are fairly large, but they should not affect current operation of
the NFS client.
I am leaning towards #3, but thought I would ask others for comments w.r.t. how I
should do this?
Thanks for any comments, rick
