What's in async_tx.git/next for 2.6.32?

From: Dan Williams
Date: Sat Sep 05 2009 - 15:23:04 EST


Provided Neil and Peter provide their acks for the raid6 acceleration work, here is what is pending in async_tx.git/next for 2.6.32:

1/ Ira's DMA_SLAVE support for the fsldma driver that just missed the 2.6.31 window
2/ raid6 extensions to the async_tx api
3/ percpu conversion of the md-raid456 stripe processing resources (address buffers / raid6-spare-page)
4/ conversion of md-raid6 to the asynchronous raid6 api
5/ experimental support for offloading stripe processing to the async thread pool (multicore raid)
6/ raid offload support for the ioatdma driver (v3.2 of Intel(R) QuickData Technology)
