...act xattr bucket and xs->base is initialized to the start of the bu_bhs[0]. So xs->base + offset will overflow when the value root is stored outside the first block. Then why we can survive the xattr test by now? It is because we always read the bucket contiguously now and kernel mm allocate continguous memory for us. We are lucky, but we should fix it. So just get the right value root as other callers do.

...k/by-id/scsi-0QEMU_QEMU_HARDDISK_SERIAL We could add a custom udev rule to get the path we wanted. (4) The "rewriting device names" option Since we already have the infrastructure to rewrite device names, we could do some complicated and hairy device name rewriting to make names appear continguous, even though there's an hidden appliance drive. This is my least favourite option, mainly because of the complexity, and complexity is bound to lead to bugs. (5) Your idea here ... As usual, comments and suggestions welcome.

Hi all, So I have finally finished the v3 of reflink for ocfs2. The biggest change is that we support 64bit cluster offset now(Thank Mark and Joel for it).

Hi all, So I have finally finished the v1 of reflink for ocfs2. It has some bugs that I am still investigating, but the schema is almost there. So I'd like to send it out first for review. And Tristan and I will continue to work on the stability of the code. The general information for reflink, please see http://oss.oracle.com/osswiki/OCFS2/DesignDocs/Reflink. For the design doc, please
