This is the main reiserfs4 filesystem.
Q&A wrt this patch: - A really short guide to how to get up and running with this filesystem. Reiser4 is a file system based on dancing tree algorithms, and is described at http://www.namesys.com. One should be able to get it up and running just like any of the other filesystems supported by Linux. Configure it to be compiled either builtin or as a module. Create reiser4 filesystem with mkfs.reiser4, mount and use it. More detailed info can be found at http://thebsh.namesys.com/snapshots/LATEST/READ.ME. - The direct URL which people use to obtain the mkfs tool for this filesystem. Also fsck and anything else. Reiser4 userland tools can be obtained at ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs. ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs/README contains detailed instructions on how to compile and install these tools. Also all reiser4 progs have man pages. - Any known shortcomings, caveats, etc. Reiser4 has been tested on i386 yet only. Quota support is not ready yet. Should be ready soon. Reiser4 was tested extensively, and we got to where the mailing list was not able to hit any bugs, but then we told people that, got an order of magnitude increase in users, and they are able to hit bugs that we are working on now. Reiser's Law of Software Engineering: Each order of magnitude increase in users finds more bugs, in a quantity equal to the previous order of magnitude increase in users. Success for software developers is measured by how long the frustration lasts. Only the very core functionality is working. Exotic plugins, an API for multiple operation transactions and accessing multiple small files in one syscall, compression, inheritance, all have been postponed until after the core functionality is shipped. The compression plugin needs a code review before anyone should use it. - A statement on compatibility with reiserfs3 filesytems. To upgrade from reiserfs V3 to V4, use tar, or sponsor us to write a convertfs. - Bear in mind that people will immediately benchmark this filesytem, and first impressions count. Now is your chance to communicate any tuning guidelines, mount options or whatever which you'd like people to understand BEFORE they start publishing benchmark info. Reiser4 is not tuned for fsync/sync/O_SYNC performance yet. If you see results that are much different from those at www.namesys.com/benchmarks.html, let us know. If you see performance characteristics that don't quite make sense, email reiserfs-list@namesys.com, such things are always of interest. reiser4 is not tuned for mmaping and dirtying more than physical ram like IOzone does. This is quite different in its code path from writing and dirtying more than physical ram. There are those who think that what IOZone does is rarely done by real programs, and therefor we should not bother to optimize what it does. All I know is, this month we are not optimized for it. Please consider its space savings when you benchmark it also.

Remove it. Now there is no need for bio_endio to subtract the size completed from bi_size. So don't do that either. While we are at it, change bi_end_io to return void.

I have to trace down from __alloc_pages() to find it. It's called "set_shrinker()", and it needs Your Help. 1) Don't hide struct shrinker. It contains no magic. 2) Don't allocate "struct shrinker". It's not helpful. 3) Call them "register_shrinker" and "unregister_shrinker". 4) Call the function "shrink" not "shrinker". 5) Reduce the 17 lines of waffly comments to 13, but document it properly.
