Where can I find snapshot XFS patches for kernel-x.y.z?

Snapshot patches for getting a kernel with XFS can be found on the FTP server in ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/patches. The most patches here are for the linus tree, patches for the -ac (Alan Cox) series are not available. Alan Cox can somtimes produce more then 3 kernels a day which is a pace the SGI people can not keep up with. If you want to make unofficial patches available for the -ac series and think you can keep up with the pace drop us a note on the list. When the VM madness subsides it should become easier to integrate XFS into a -ac kernel. The patches you can find here are provided for recent linus kernels to either seed a cvs tree which makes it faster to make your own local CVS tree or patch a linus tree in to a XFS capable kernel tree. These patches are generally released for each new kernel version. Read the README file in the above URL for more information.
