adding ext4fs support to 8.1

[hippo]

Any idea how to add ext4fs support? I tried this patch http://old.nabble.com/-patch--ext4fs-read-only-mode-td29504369.html but the files don't match the kernel sources - /usr/src/sys/fs/ext2fs/ext2_alloc.c doesn't exist and /usr/src/sys/gnu/fs/ext2fs/ext2_alloc.c is too different.

Unless otherwise stated patches on the lists are usually against /head. After applying you may need to compile with WERROR= in src.conf to not die on warnings.

OK thank you. (bummer!) Is there any similar patch for 8.1?

You might look into the Google SoC project stuff: http://wiki.freebsd.org/SOC2010ZhengLiu
