Hi all,

I've created a page on the ext4 wiki outlining the patchset that I'm working on
to add metadata checksumming to ext4.  The page can be found at this address:
https://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Metadata_Checksums

Can you summarize the differences to my earlier patchkit?

My new patchset intends to expand on your earlier inode/superblock patches by
adding checksums to nearly all metadata objects (directory blocks, htree,
extent tree, block/inode bitmaps, extended attributes).  It also adds code to
e2fsprogs to verify the checksums, and make the necessary adjustments to the
on-disk format to add space for checksums.
