Ocfs users - Jun 2004 - Question about 1.0.9-12 and 1.0.12

I was just checking the release notes for 1.0.12, and saw the following note for
1.0.9-12:

Fixes a potential corruption with large, aligned, direct I/Os, for example
Oracle redo logs or direct path SQL loader.

	I was wondering whether that had anything to do with the potential problem with
asynchronous I/O and redo logs, or if it was completely unrelated.

No, not related to aio, only odirect. Had to do with some bad arithmetic
in coalescing smaller blocks into larger ones. Problem was introduced in
1.0.9-11 and fixed in -12. :-)
