fs: Remove ext3 filesystem driver

2015-07-23T18:59:40Z

The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3 filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code. Acked-by: Theodore Ts'o Signed-off-by: Jan Kara

Revert "task_struct: make journal_info conditional"

2009-12-17T21:23:24Z

This reverts commit e4c570c4cb7a95dbfafa3d016d2739bf3fdfe319, as requested by Alexey: "I think I gave a good enough arguments to not merge it. To iterate: * patch makes impossible to start using ext3 on EXT3_FS=n kernels without reboot. * this is done only for one pointer on task_struct" None of config options which define task_struct are tristate directly or effectively."

task_struct: make journal_info conditional

2009-12-15T16:53:27Z

journal_info in task_struct is used in journaling file system only. So introduce CONFIG_FS_JOURNAL_INFO and make it conditional. Signed-off-by: Hiroshi Shimamoto Cc: Chris Mason Cc: "Theodore Ts'o" Cc: Steven Whitehouse Cc: KONISHI Ryusuke Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

fs/Kconfig: move ext2, ext3, ext4, JBD, JBD2 out

2008-10-20T18:43:59Z

Use fs/*/Kconfig more, which is good because everything related to one filesystem is in one place and fs/Kconfig is quite fat. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
