ReiserFS Has Been Deleted From The Linux Kernel


Linus Torvalds just merged the change to the Linux 6.13 kernel that goes ahead and deletes the ReiserFS file-system from the source tree

Linus Torvalds just merged the change to the Linux 6.13 kernel that goes ahead and deletes the ReiserFS file-system from the source tree. This also comes a few months after a ReiserFS change was made at the request of Hans Reiser around the file-system's documentation following a public jailhouse letter from the convicted murderer. With not much interest upstream around Reiser4(or rather Reiser5), this looks to be the end of the Reiser file-system lineage in the mainline Linux kernel.
