Before we can bring back the reverted patch, we need the same fix for ext4. Daniel, is there progress on that?
Last I knew, Ted had a prototype patch for that, not sure what the current status of it is. I'm also not sure whether the unicode patch is being relanded, or if there's a different fix in the works there.
Between travel and an emergency at work, I haven't had time to create the script to create a test file system to verify the prototype patch. It turns out this is quite diffisult!
I finally managed to create a script which demonstrates why the revert was necessary, but it wasn't enough to demonstrate why a further patch is needed. I think I know what I need to do, but it's a mess and I've already wasted hours and hours in this.
Do you have a relible script to generate a test file system. This is what I have so far, but as I said, it's not quite good enough...
