+What: /sys/o2cb symlink
+Date: Dec 2005
+KernelVersion: 2.6.16
+Contact: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com
+Description: This is a symlink: /sys/o2cb to /sys/fs/o2cb. The symlink will
+ be removed when new versions of ocfs2-tools which know to look
+ in /sys/fs/o2cb are sufficiently prevalent. Don't code new
+ software to look here, it should try /sys/fs/o2cb instead.
+ See Documentation/ABI/stable/o2cb for more information on usage.
+Users: ocfs2-tools. It's sufficient to mail proposed changes to

+Date: Dec 2005
+KernelVersion: 2.6.16
+Contact: ocfs2-devel@oss.oracle.com
+Description: Ocfs2-tools looks at 'interface-revision' for versioning
+ information. Each logmask/ file controls a set of debug prints
+ and can be written into with the strings "allow", "deny", or
+ "off". Reading the file returns the current state.

+What: /sys/o2cb symlink
+When: January 2010
+Why: /sys/fs/o2cb is the proper location for this information - /sys/o2cb
+ exists as a symlink for backwards compatibility for old versions of
+ ocfs2-tools. 2 years should be sufficient time to phase in new versions
+ which know to look in /sys/fs/o2cb.
