XFS Code For Linux 6.14 Improves Realtime Device Support


In addition to the Bcachefs features and new Btrfs code for Linux 6.14, the XFS file-system changes were merged on Thursday for this next version of the Linux kernel.

XFS developer Darrick Wong explained of the real-time reverse-mapping and reflink support in a prior patch series with: "Christoph and I have been working on getting the long-delayed port of reverse mapping and reflink to the realtime device into mergeable shape. This is the base for building more functionality into xfs, such as the zoned storage support that Christoph posted last week."
