Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong: "The notable user-visible addition this cycle is ability to remove space from the last AG in a filesystem. This is the first of many changes needed for full-fledged support for shrinking a filesystem. Still needed are (a) the ability to reorganize files and metadata away from the end of the fs; (b) the ability to remove entire allocation groups; (c) shrink support for realtime volumes; and (d) thorough testing of (a-c). There are a number of performance improvements in this code drop: Dave streamlined various parts of the buffer logging code and reduced the cost of various debugging checks, and added the ability to pre-create the xattr structures while creating files. Brian eliminated transaction reservations that were being held across writeback (thus reducing livelock potential. Other random pieces: Pavel fixed the repetitve warnings about deprecated mount options, I fixed online fsck to behave itself when a readonly remount comes in during scrub, and refactored various other parts of that code, Christoph contributed a lot of refactoring this cycle. The xfs_icdinode structure has been absorbed into the (incore) xfs_inode structure, and the format and flags handling around xfs_inode_fork structures has been simplified. Chandan provided a number of fixes for extent count overflow related problems that have been shaken out by debugging knobs added during 5.12. Summary: - Various minor fixes in online scrub. - Prevent metadata files from being automatically inactivated. - Validate btree heights by the computed per-btree limits. - Don't warn about remounting with deprecated mount options. - Initialize attr forks at create time if we suspect we're going to need to store them. - Reduce memory reallocation workouts in the logging code. - Fix some theoretical math calculation errors in logged buffers that span multiple discontig memory ranges but contiguous ondisk regions. - Speedups in dirty buffer bitmap handling. - Make type verifier functions more inline-happy to reduce overhead. - Reduce debug overhead in directory checking code. - Many many typo fixes. - Begin to handle the permanent loss of the very end of a filesystem. - Fold struct xfs_icdinode into xfs_inode. - Deprecate the long defunct BMV_IF_NO_DMAPI_READ from the bmapx ioctl. - Remove a broken directory block format check from online scrub. - Fix a bug where we could produce an unnecessarily tall data fork btree when creating an attr fork. - Fix scrub and readonly remounts racing. - Fix a writeback ioend log deadlock problem by dropping the behavior where we could preallocate a setfilesize transaction. - Fix some bugs in the new extent count checking code. - Fix some bugs in the attr fork preallocation code. - Refactor if_flags out of the incore inode fork data structure" * tag 'xfs-5.13-merge-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: (77 commits) xfs: remove xfs_quiesce_attr declaration xfs: remove XFS_IFEXTENTS xfs: remove XFS_IFINLINE xfs: remove XFS_IFBROOT xfs: only look at the fork format in xfs_idestroy_fork xfs: simplify xfs_attr_remove_args xfs: rename and simplify xfs_bmap_one_block xfs: move the XFS_IFEXTENTS check into xfs_iread_extents xfs: drop unnecessary setfilesize helper xfs: drop unused ioend private merge and setfilesize code xfs: open code ioend needs workqueue helper xfs: drop submit side trans alloc for append ioends xfs: fix return of uninitialized value in variable error xfs: get rid of the ip parameter to xchk_setup_* xfs: fix scrub and remount-ro protection when running scrub xfs: move the check for post-EOF mappings into xfs_can_free_eofblocks xfs: move the xfs_can_free_eofblocks call under the IOLOCK xfs: precalculate default inode attribute offset xfs: default attr fork size does not handle device inodes xfs: inode fork allocation depends on XFS_IFEXTENT flag ...
