+4. Userspace Programming
+------------------------
+
+The cfag12864bfb describes a framebuffer device (/dev/fbX).
+
+It has a size of 1024 bytes = 1 Kbyte.
+Each bit represents one pixel. If the bit is high, the pixel will
+turn on. If the pixel is low, the pixel will turn off.
+
+You can use the framebuffer as a file: fopen, fwrite, fclose...
+Although the LCD won't get updated until the next refresh time arrives.
+
+Also, you can mmap the framebuffer: open & mmap, munmap & close...
+which is the best option for most uses.
+
+Check samples/auxdisplay/cfag12864b-example.c
+for a real working userspace complete program with usage examples.

This module supports the SMB3 family of advanced network protocols (as well
as older dialects, originally called "CIFS" or SMB1).
The CIFS VFS module for Linux supports many advanced network filesystem
features such as hierarchical DFS like namespace, hardlinks, locking and more.

+Samba Considerations
====================

Most current servers support SMB2.1 and SMB3 which are more secure,
but there are useful protocol extensions for the older less secure CIFS
dialect, so to get the maximum benefit if mounting using the older dialect
(CIFS/SMB1), we recommend using a server that supports the SNIA CIFS
Unix Extensions standard (e.g. almost any version of Samba ie version
2.2.5 or later) but the CIFS vfs works fine with a wide variety of CIFS servers.

-Brutus
-======
-
-Brutus is an evaluation platform for the SA1100 manufactured by Intel.
-For more details, see:
-
-http://developer.intel.com
-
-To compile for Brutus, you must issue the following commands::
-
- make brutus_config
- make config
- [accept all the defaults]
- make zImage
-
-The resulting kernel will end up in linux/arch/arm/boot/zImage. This file
-must be loaded at 0xc0008000 in Brutus's memory and execution started at
-0xc0008000 as well with the value of registers r0 = 0 and r1 = 16 upon
-entry.
-
-But prior to execute the kernel, a ramdisk image must also be loaded in
-memory. Use memory address 0xd8000000 for this. Note that the file
-containing the (compressed) ramdisk image must not exceed 4 MB.
-
-Typically, you'll need angelboot to load the kernel.
-The following angelboot.opt file should be used::
-
- base 0xc0008000
- entry 0xc0008000
- r0 0x00000000
- r1 0x00000010
- device /dev/ttyS0
- options "9600 8N1"
- baud 115200
- otherfile ramdisk_img.gz
- otherbase 0xd8000000
-
-Then load the kernel and ramdisk with::
-
- angelboot -f angelboot.opt zImage
-
-The first Brutus serial port (assumed to be linked to /dev/ttyS0 on your
-host PC) is used by angel to load the kernel and ramdisk image. The serial
-console is provided through the second Brutus serial port. To access it,
-you may use minicom configured with /dev/ttyS1, 9600 baud, 8N1, no flow
-control.
-
-Currently supported
-===================
-
- - RS232 serial ports
- - audio output
- - LCD screen
- - keyboard
-
-The actual Brutus support may not be complete without extra patches.
-If such patches exist, they should be found from
-ftp.netwinder.org/users/n/nico.
-
-A full PCMCIA support is still missing, although it's possible to hack
-some drivers in order to drive already inserted cards at boot time with
-little modifications.
-
-Any contribution is welcome.

-Please send patches to nico@fluxnic.net

-Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>. Continued development work by

-
-It's currently possible to mount a root filesystem via NFS providing a
-complete Linux environment. Otherwise a ramdisk image may be used. The
-board supports MTD/JFFS, so you could also mount something on there.
-
-Use 'make graphicsclient_config' before any 'make config'. This will set up
-defaults for GraphicsClient Plus support.
-
-The kernel zImage is linked to be loaded and executed at 0xc0200000.
-Also the following registers should have the specified values upon entry::
-
- r0 = 0
- r1 = 29 (this is the GraphicsClient architecture number)
-
-Linux can be used with the ADS BootLoader that ships with the
-newer rev boards. See their documentation on how to load Linux.
-Angel is not available for the GraphicsClient Plus AFAIK.
-
-There is a board known as just the GraphicsClient that ADS used to
-produce but has end of lifed. This code will not work on the older
-board with the ADS bootloader, but should still work with Angel,
-as outlined below. In any case, if you're planning on deploying
-something en masse, you should probably get the newer board.
-
-If using Angel on the older boards, here is a typical angel.opt option file
-if the kernel is loaded through the Angel Debug Monitor::
-
- base 0xc0200000
- entry 0xc0200000
- r0 0x00000000
- r1 0x0000001d
- device /dev/ttyS1
- options "38400 8N1"
- baud 115200
- #otherfile ramdisk.gz
- #otherbase 0xc0800000
- exec minicom
-
-Then the kernel (and ramdisk if otherfile/otherbase lines above are
-uncommented) would be loaded with::
-
- angelboot -f angelboot.opt zImage
-
-Here it is assumed that the board is connected to ttyS1 on your PC
-and that minicom is preconfigured with /dev/ttyS1, 38400 baud, 8N1, no flow
-control by default.
-
-If any other bootloader is used, ensure it accomplish the same, especially
-for r0/r1 register values before jumping into the kernel.

- on top of it. If you're not using the ADS bootloader, you're

-- 16bpp mode requires a different cable than what ships with the board.
- Contact ADS or look through the manual to wire your own. Currently,
- if you compile with 16bit mode support and switch into a lower bpp
- mode, the timing is off so the image is corrupted. This will be
- fixed soon.

-Itsy
-====
-
-Itsy is a research project done by the Western Research Lab, and Systems
-Research Center in Palo Alto, CA. The Itsy project is one of several
-research projects at Compaq that are related to pocket computing.
-
-For more information, see:
-
- http://www.hpl.hp.com/downloads/crl/itsy/
-
-Notes on initial 2.4 Itsy support (8/27/2000) :
-
-The port was done on an Itsy version 1.5 machine with a daughtercard with
-64 Meg of DRAM and 32 Meg of Flash. The initial work includes support for
-serial console (to see what you're doing). No other devices have been
-enabled.
-
-To build, do a "make menuconfig" (or xmenuconfig) and select Itsy support.
-Disable Flash and LCD support. and then do a make zImage.
-Finally, you will need to cd to arch/arm/boot/tools and execute a make there
-to build the params-itsy program used to boot the kernel.
-
-In order to install the port of 2.4 to the itsy, You will need to set the
-configuration parameters in the monitor as follows::
-
- Arg 1:0x08340000, Arg2: 0xC0000000, Arg3:18 (0x12), Arg4:0
-
-Make sure the start-routine address is set to 0x00060000.
-
-Next, flash the params-itsy program to 0x00060000 ("p 1 0x00060000" in the
-flash menu) Flash the kernel in arch/arm/boot/zImage into 0x08340000
-("p 1 0x00340000"). Finally flash an initial ramdisk into 0xC8000000
-("p 2 0x0") We used ramdisk-2-30.gz from the 0.11 version directory on
-handhelds.org.
-
-The serial connection we established was at:
-
-8-bit data, no parity, 1 stop bit(s), 115200.00 b/s. in the monitor, in the
-params-itsy program, and in the kernel itself. This can be changed, but
-not easily. The monitor parameters are easily changed, the params program
-setup is assembly outl's, and the kernel is a configuration item specific to
-the itsy. (i.e. grep for CONFIG_SA1100_ITSY and you'll find where it is.)
-
-
-This should get you a properly booting 2.4 kernel on the itsy.

-4. USERSPACE PROGRAMMING
-------------------------
-
-The cfag12864bfb describes a framebuffer device (/dev/fbX).
-
-It has a size of 1024 bytes = 1 Kbyte.
-Each bit represents one pixel. If the bit is high, the pixel will
-turn on. If the pixel is low, the pixel will turn off.
-
-You can use the framebuffer as a file: fopen, fwrite, fclose...
-Although the LCD won't get updated until the next refresh time arrives.
-
-Also, you can mmap the framebuffer: open & mmap, munmap & close...
-which is the best option for most uses.
-
-Check samples/auxdisplay/cfag12864b-example.c
-for a real working userspace complete program with usage examples.

-# Writing DeviceTree Bindings in json-schema
-
-Devicetree bindings are written using json-schema vocabulary. Schema files are
-written in a JSON compatible subset of YAML. YAML is used instead of JSON as it
-considered more human readable and has some advantages such as allowing
-comments (Prefixed with '#').
-
-## Schema Contents
-
-Each schema doc is a structured json-schema which is defined by a set of
-top-level properties. Generally, there is one binding defined per file. The
-top-level json-schema properties used are:
-
-- __$id__ - A json-schema unique identifier string. The string must be a valid
-URI typically containing the binding's filename and path. For DT schema, it must
-begin with "http://devicetree.org/schemas/". The URL is used in constructing
-references to other files specified in schema "$ref" properties. A $ref values
-with a leading '/' will have the hostname prepended. A $ref value a relative
-path or filename only will be prepended with the hostname and path components
-of the current schema file's '$id' value. A URL is used even for local files,
-but there may not actually be files present at those locations.
-
-- __$schema__ - Indicates the meta-schema the schema file adheres to.
-
-- __title__ - A one line description on the contents of the binding schema.
-
-- __maintainers__ - A DT specific property. Contains a list of email address(es)
-for maintainers of this binding.
-
-- __description__ - Optional. A multi-line text block containing any detailed
-information about this binding. It should contain things such as what the block
-or device does, standards the device conforms to, and links to datasheets for
-more information.
-
-- __select__ - Optional. A json-schema used to match nodes for applying the
-schema. By default without 'select', nodes are matched against their possible
-compatible string values or node name. Most bindings should not need select.
-
-- __allOf__ - Optional. A list of other schemas to include. This is used to
-include other schemas the binding conforms to. This may be schemas for a
-particular class of devices such as I2C or SPI controllers.
-
-- __properties__ - A set of sub-schema defining all the DT properties for the
-binding. The exact schema syntax depends on whether properties are known,
-common properties (e.g. 'interrupts') or are binding/vendor specific properties.
-
- A property can also define a child DT node with child properties defined
-under it.
-
- For more details on properties sections, see 'Property Schema' section.
-
-- __patternProperties__ - Optional. Similar to 'properties', but names are regex.
-
-- __required__ - A list of DT properties from the 'properties' section that
-must always be present.
-
-- __examples__ - Optional. A list of one or more DTS hunks implementing the
-binding. Note: YAML doesn't allow leading tabs, so spaces must be used instead.
-
-Unless noted otherwise, all properties are required.
-
-## Property Schema
-
-The 'properties' section of the schema contains all the DT properties for a
-binding. Each property contains a set of constraints using json-schema
-vocabulary for that property. The properties schemas are what is used for
-validation of DT files.
-
-For common properties, only additional constraints not covered by the common
-binding schema need to be defined such as how many values are valid or what
-possible values are valid.
-
-Vendor specific properties will typically need more detailed schema. With the
-exception of boolean properties, they should have a reference to a type in
-schemas/types.yaml. A "description" property is always required.
-
-The Devicetree schemas don't exactly match the YAML encoded DT data produced by
-dtc. They are simplified to make them more compact and avoid a bunch of
-boilerplate. The tools process the schema files to produce the final schema for
-validation. There are currently 2 transformations the tools perform.
-
-The default for arrays in json-schema is they are variable sized and allow more
-entries than explicitly defined. This can be restricted by defining 'minItems',
-'maxItems', and 'additionalItems'. However, for DeviceTree Schemas, a fixed
-size is desired in most cases, so these properties are added based on the
-number of entries in an 'items' list.
-
-The YAML Devicetree format also makes all string values an array and scalar
-values a matrix (in order to define groupings) even when only a single value
-is present. Single entries in schemas are fixed up to match this encoding.

-`pip3 install git+https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema.git@master`
-
-dtc must also be built with YAML output support enabled. This requires that

-
-### Running checks

----
-[recommended]
-
-New helpers: sb_bread(), sb_getblk(), sb_find_get_block(), set_bh(),
- sb_set_blocksize() and sb_min_blocksize().
-
-Use them.

-New methods: ->alloc_inode() and ->destroy_inode().
-
-Remove inode->u.foo_inode_i
-Declare
- struct foo_inode_info {
- /* fs-private stuff */
- struct inode vfs_inode;
- };
- static inline struct foo_inode_info *FOO_I(struct inode *inode)
- {
- return list_entry(inode, struct foo_inode_info, vfs_inode);

-Add foo_alloc_inode() and foo_destroy_inode() - the former should allocate
-foo_inode_info and return the address of ->vfs_inode, the latter should free
-FOO_I(inode) (see in-tree filesystems for examples).
-
-Make them ->alloc_inode and ->destroy_inode in your super_operations.
-
-Keep in mind that now you need explicit initialization of private data
-typically between calling iget_locked() and unlocking the inode.
-
-At some point that will become mandatory.

-Change of file_system_type method (->read_super to ->get_sb)
-
-->read_super() is no more. Ditto for DECLARE_FSTYPE and DECLARE_FSTYPE_DEV.
-
-Turn your foo_read_super() into a function that would return 0 in case of

-
-Locking change: ->s_vfs_rename_sem is taken only by cross-directory renames.
-Most likely there is no need to change anything, but if you relied on
-global exclusion between renames for some internal purpose - you need to
-change your internal locking. Otherwise exclusion warranties remain the
-same (i.e. parents and victim are locked, etc.).

-New super_block field "struct export_operations *s_export_op" for
-explicit support for exporting, e.g. via NFS. The structure is fully
-documented at its declaration in include/linux/fs.h, and in
-Documentation/filesystems/nfs/Exporting.
-
-Briefly it allows for the definition of decode_fh and encode_fh operations
-to encode and decode filehandles, and allows the filesystem to use
-a standard helper function for decode_fh, and provide file-system specific
-support for this helper, particularly get_parent.
-
-It is planned that this will be required for exporting once the code
-settles down a bit.
-
-[mandatory]
-
-s_export_op is now required for exporting a filesystem.
-isofs, ext2, ext3, resierfs, fat
-can be used as examples of very different filesystems.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
-iget4() and the read_inode2 callback have been superseded by iget5_locked()
-which has the following prototype,
-
- struct inode *iget5_locked(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long ino,
- int (*test)(struct inode *, void *),
- int (*set)(struct inode *, void *),
- void *data);
-
-'test' is an additional function that can be used when the inode
-number is not sufficient to identify the actual file object. 'set'
-should be a non-blocking function that initializes those parts of a
-newly created inode to allow the test function to succeed. 'data' is
-passed as an opaque value to both test and set functions.
-
-When the inode has been created by iget5_locked(), it will be returned with the
-I_NEW flag set and will still be locked. The filesystem then needs to finalize
-the initialization. Once the inode is initialized it must be unlocked by
-calling unlock_new_inode().
-
-The filesystem is responsible for setting (and possibly testing) i_ino
-when appropriate. There is also a simpler iget_locked function that
-just takes the superblock and inode number as arguments and does the
-test and set for you.
-
-e.g.
- inode = iget_locked(sb, ino);
- if (inode->i_state & I_NEW) {
- err = read_inode_from_disk(inode);
- if (err < 0) {
- iget_failed(inode);
- return err;
- }
- unlock_new_inode(inode);
- }
-
-Note that if the process of setting up a new inode fails, then iget_failed()
-should be called on the inode to render it dead, and an appropriate error
-should be passed back to the caller.
-
----

-
-->getattr() finally getting used. See instances in nfs, minix, etc.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
-->revalidate() is gone. If your filesystem had it - provide ->getattr()
-and let it call whatever you had as ->revlidate() + (for symlinks that
-had ->revalidate()) add calls in ->follow_link()/->readlink().

----
-[mandatory]
-
-->d_parent changes are not protected by BKL anymore. Read access is safe
-if at least one of the following is true:
- * filesystem has no cross-directory rename()
- * we know that parent had been locked (e.g. we are looking at
-->d_parent of ->lookup() argument).
- * we are called from ->rename().
- * the child's ->d_lock is held
-Audit your code and add locking if needed. Notice that any place that is
-not protected by the conditions above is risky even in the old tree - you
-had been relying on BKL and that's prone to screwups. Old tree had quite
-a few holes of that kind - unprotected access to ->d_parent leading to
-anything from oops to silent memory corruption.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- FS_NOMOUNT is gone. If you use it - just set SB_NOUSER in flags
-(see rootfs for one kind of solution and bdev/socket/pipe for another).
-
----
-[recommended]
-
- Use bdev_read_only(bdev) instead of is_read_only(kdev). The latter
-is still alive, but only because of the mess in drivers/s390/block/dasd.c.
-As soon as it gets fixed is_read_only() will die.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
-->permission() is called without BKL now. Grab it on entry, drop upon
-return - that will guarantee the same locking you used to have. If
-your method or its parts do not need BKL - better yet, now you can
-shift lock_kernel() and unlock_kernel() so that they would protect
-exactly what needs to be protected.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
-->statfs() is now called without BKL held. BKL should have been
-shifted into individual fs sb_op functions where it's not clear that
-it's safe to remove it. If you don't need it, remove it.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- is_read_only() is gone; use bdev_read_only() instead.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- destroy_buffers() is gone; use invalidate_bdev().
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- fsync_dev() is gone; use fsync_bdev(). NOTE: lvm breakage is
-deliberate; as soon as struct block_device * is propagated in a reasonable
-way by that code fixing will become trivial; until then nothing can be
-done.
-
-[mandatory]
-
- block truncatation on error exit from ->write_begin, and ->direct_IO
-moved from generic methods (block_write_begin, cont_write_begin,
-nobh_write_begin, blockdev_direct_IO*) to callers. Take a look at
-ext2_write_failed and callers for an example.
-
-[mandatory]
-
- ->truncate is gone. The whole truncate sequence needs to be
-implemented in ->setattr, which is now mandatory for filesystems
-implementing on-disk size changes. Start with a copy of the old inode_setattr
-and vmtruncate, and the reorder the vmtruncate + foofs_vmtruncate sequence to
-be in order of zeroing blocks using block_truncate_page or similar helpers,
-size update and on finally on-disk truncation which should not fail.
-setattr_prepare (which used to be inode_change_ok) now includes the size checks
-for ATTR_SIZE and must be called in the beginning of ->setattr unconditionally.
-
-[mandatory]
-
- ->clear_inode() and ->delete_inode() are gone; ->evict_inode() should
-be used instead. It gets called whenever the inode is evicted, whether it has
-remaining links or not. Caller does *not* evict the pagecache or inode-associated
-metadata buffers; the method has to use truncate_inode_pages_final() to get rid
-of those. Caller makes sure async writeback cannot be running for the inode while
-(or after) ->evict_inode() is called.
-
- ->drop_inode() returns int now; it's called on final iput() with
-inode->i_lock held and it returns true if filesystems wants the inode to be
-dropped. As before, generic_drop_inode() is still the default and it's been
-updated appropriately. generic_delete_inode() is also alive and it consists
-simply of return 1. Note that all actual eviction work is done by caller after
-->drop_inode() returns.
-
- As before, clear_inode() must be called exactly once on each call of
-->evict_inode() (as it used to be for each call of ->delete_inode()). Unlike
-before, if you are using inode-associated metadata buffers (i.e.
-mark_buffer_dirty_inode()), it's your responsibility to call
-invalidate_inode_buffers() before clear_inode().
-
- NOTE: checking i_nlink in the beginning of ->write_inode() and bailing out
-if it's zero is not *and* *never* *had* *been* enough. Final unlink() and iput()
-may happen while the inode is in the middle of ->write_inode(); e.g. if you blindly
-free the on-disk inode, you may end up doing that while ->write_inode() is writing
-to it.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- .d_delete() now only advises the dcache as to whether or not to cache
-unreferenced dentries, and is now only called when the dentry refcount goes to
-0. Even on 0 refcount transition, it must be able to tolerate being called 0,
-1, or more times (eg. constant, idempotent).
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- .d_compare() calling convention and locking rules are significantly
-changed. Read updated documentation in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst (and
-look at examples of other filesystems) for guidance.
-
----
-[mandatory]
-
- .d_hash() calling convention and locking rules are significantly
-changed. Read updated documentation in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst (and
-look at examples of other filesystems) for guidance.
-
----
-[mandatory]
- dcache_lock is gone, replaced by fine grained locks. See fs/dcache.c
-for details of what locks to replace dcache_lock with in order to protect
-particular things. Most of the time, a filesystem only needs ->d_lock, which
-protects *all* the dcache state of a given dentry.
-
---
-[mandatory]
-
- Filesystems must RCU-free their inodes, if they can have been accessed
-via rcu-walk path walk (basically, if the file can have had a path name in the
-vfs namespace).
-
- Even though i_dentry and i_rcu share storage in a union, we will
-initialize the former in inode_init_always(), so just leave it alone in
-the callback. It used to be necessary to clean it there, but not anymore
-(starting at 3.2).
-
---
-[recommended]
- vfs now tries to do path walking in "rcu-walk mode", which avoids
-atomic operations and scalability hazards on dentries and inodes (see
-Documentation/filesystems/path-lookup.txt). d_hash and d_compare changes
-(above) are examples of the changes required to support this. For more complex
-filesystem callbacks, the vfs drops out of rcu-walk mode before the fs call, so
-no changes are required to the filesystem. However, this is costly and loses
-the benefits of rcu-walk mode. We will begin to add filesystem callbacks that
-are rcu-walk aware, shown below. Filesystems should take advantage of this
-where possible.
-
---
-[mandatory]
- d_revalidate is a callback that is made on every path element (if
-the filesystem provides it), which requires dropping out of rcu-walk mode. This
-may now be called in rcu-walk mode (nd->flags & LOOKUP_RCU). -ECHILD should be
-returned if the filesystem cannot handle rcu-walk. See
-Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst for more details.
-
- permission is an inode permission check that is called on many or all
-directory inodes on the way down a path walk (to check for exec permission). It
-must now be rcu-walk aware (mask & MAY_NOT_BLOCK). See
-Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst for more details.
-
---
-[mandatory]
- In ->fallocate() you must check the mode option passed in. If your
-filesystem does not support hole punching (deallocating space in the middle of a
-file) you must return -EOPNOTSUPP if FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE is set in mode.
-Currently you can only have FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE with FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE set,
-so the i_size should not change when hole punching, even when puching the end of
-a file off.
-
---
-[mandatory]
- ->get_sb() is gone. Switch to use of ->mount(). Typically it's just
-a matter of switching from calling get_sb_... to mount_... and changing the
-function type. If you were doing it manually, just switch from setting ->mnt_root
-to some pointer to returning that pointer. On errors return ERR_PTR(...).
-
---
-[mandatory]
- ->permission() and generic_permission()have lost flags
-argument; instead of passing IPERM_FLAG_RCU we add MAY_NOT_BLOCK into mask.
- generic_permission() has also lost the check_acl argument; ACL checking
-has been taken to VFS and filesystems need to provide a non-NULL ->i_op->get_acl
-to read an ACL from disk.
-
---
-[mandatory]
- If you implement your own ->llseek() you must handle SEEK_HOLE and
-SEEK_DATA. You can hanle this by returning -EINVAL, but it would be nicer to
-support it in some way. The generic handler assumes that the entire file is
-data and there is a virtual hole at the end of the file. So if the provided
-offset is less than i_size and SEEK_DATA is specified, return the same offset.
-If the above is true for the offset and you are given SEEK_HOLE, return the end
-of the file. If the offset is i_size or greater return -ENXIO in either case.
-
-[mandatory]
- If you have your own ->fsync() you must make sure to call
-filemap_write_and_wait_range() so that all dirty pages are synced out properly.
-You must also keep in mind that ->fsync() is not called with i_mutex held
-anymore, so if you require i_mutex locking you must make sure to take it and
-release it yourself.
-
---
-[mandatory]
- d_alloc_root() is gone, along with a lot of bugs caused by code
-misusing it. Replacement: d_make_root(inode). On success d_make_root(inode)
-allocates and returns a new dentry instantiated with the passed in inode.
-On failure NULL is returned and the passed in inode is dropped so the reference
-to inode is consumed in all cases and failure handling need not do any cleanup
-for the inode. If d_make_root(inode) is passed a NULL inode it returns NULL
-and also requires no further error handling. Typical usage is:
-
- inode = foofs_new_inode(....);
- s->s_root = d_make_root(inode);
- if (!s->s_root)
- /* Nothing needed for the inode cleanup */
- return -ENOMEM;
- ...
-
---
-[mandatory]
- The witch is dead! Well, 2/3 of it, anyway. ->d_revalidate() and
-->lookup() do *not* take struct nameidata anymore; just the flags.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->create() doesn't take struct nameidata *; unlike the previous
-two, it gets "is it an O_EXCL or equivalent?" boolean argument. Note that
-local filesystems can ignore tha argument - they are guaranteed that the
-object doesn't exist. It's remote/distributed ones that might care...
---
-[mandatory]
- FS_REVAL_DOT is gone; if you used to have it, add ->d_weak_revalidate()
-in your dentry operations instead.
---
-[mandatory]
- vfs_readdir() is gone; switch to iterate_dir() instead
---
-[mandatory]
- ->readdir() is gone now; switch to ->iterate()
-[mandatory]
- vfs_follow_link has been removed. Filesystems must use nd_set_link
- from ->follow_link for normal symlinks, or nd_jump_link for magic
- /proc/<pid> style links.
---
-[mandatory]
- iget5_locked()/ilookup5()/ilookup5_nowait() test() callback used to be
- called with both ->i_lock and inode_hash_lock held; the former is *not*
- taken anymore, so verify that your callbacks do not rely on it (none
- of the in-tree instances did). inode_hash_lock is still held,
- of course, so they are still serialized wrt removal from inode hash,
- as well as wrt set() callback of iget5_locked().
---
-[mandatory]
- d_materialise_unique() is gone; d_splice_alias() does everything you
- need now. Remember that they have opposite orders of arguments ;-/
---
-[mandatory]
- f_dentry is gone; use f_path.dentry, or, better yet, see if you can avoid
- it entirely.
---
-[mandatory]
- never call ->read() and ->write() directly; use __vfs_{read,write} or
- wrappers; instead of checking for ->write or ->read being NULL, look for
- FMODE_CAN_{WRITE,READ} in file->f_mode.
---
-[mandatory]
- do _not_ use new_sync_{read,write} for ->read/->write; leave it NULL
- instead.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->aio_read/->aio_write are gone. Use ->read_iter/->write_iter.
----
-[recommended]
- for embedded ("fast") symlinks just set inode->i_link to wherever the
- symlink body is and use simple_follow_link() as ->follow_link().
---
-[mandatory]
- calling conventions for ->follow_link() have changed. Instead of returning
- cookie and using nd_set_link() to store the body to traverse, we return
- the body to traverse and store the cookie using explicit void ** argument.
- nameidata isn't passed at all - nd_jump_link() doesn't need it and
- nd_[gs]et_link() is gone.
---
-[mandatory]
- calling conventions for ->put_link() have changed. It gets inode instead of
- dentry, it does not get nameidata at all and it gets called only when cookie
- is non-NULL. Note that link body isn't available anymore, so if you need it,
- store it as cookie.
---
-[mandatory]
- any symlink that might use page_follow_link_light/page_put_link() must
- have inode_nohighmem(inode) called before anything might start playing with
- its pagecache. No highmem pages should end up in the pagecache of such
- symlinks. That includes any preseeding that might be done during symlink
- creation. __page_symlink() will honour the mapping gfp flags, so once
- you've done inode_nohighmem() it's safe to use, but if you allocate and
- insert the page manually, make sure to use the right gfp flags.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->follow_link() is replaced with ->get_link(); same API, except that
- * ->get_link() gets inode as a separate argument
- * ->get_link() may be called in RCU mode - in that case NULL
- dentry is passed
---
-[mandatory]
- ->get_link() gets struct delayed_call *done now, and should do
- set_delayed_call() where it used to set *cookie.
- ->put_link() is gone - just give the destructor to set_delayed_call()
- in ->get_link().
---
-[mandatory]
- ->getxattr() and xattr_handler.get() get dentry and inode passed separately.
- dentry might be yet to be attached to inode, so do _not_ use its ->d_inode
- in the instances. Rationale: !@#!@# security_d_instantiate() needs to be
- called before we attach dentry to inode.
---
-[mandatory]
- symlinks are no longer the only inodes that do *not* have i_bdev/i_cdev/
- i_pipe/i_link union zeroed out at inode eviction. As the result, you can't
- assume that non-NULL value in ->i_nlink at ->destroy_inode() implies that
- it's a symlink. Checking ->i_mode is really needed now. In-tree we had
- to fix shmem_destroy_callback() that used to take that kind of shortcut;
- watch out, since that shortcut is no longer valid.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->i_mutex is replaced with ->i_rwsem now. inode_lock() et.al. work as
- they used to - they just take it exclusive. However, ->lookup() may be
- called with parent locked shared. Its instances must not
- * use d_instantiate) and d_rehash() separately - use d_add() or
- d_splice_alias() instead.
- * use d_rehash() alone - call d_add(new_dentry, NULL) instead.
- * in the unlikely case when (read-only) access to filesystem
- data structures needs exclusion for some reason, arrange it
- yourself. None of the in-tree filesystems needed that.
- * rely on ->d_parent and ->d_name not changing after dentry has
- been fed to d_add() or d_splice_alias(). Again, none of the
- in-tree instances relied upon that.
- We are guaranteed that lookups of the same name in the same directory
- will not happen in parallel ("same" in the sense of your ->d_compare()).
- Lookups on different names in the same directory can and do happen in
- parallel now.
---
-[recommended]
- ->iterate_shared() is added; it's a parallel variant of ->iterate().
- Exclusion on struct file level is still provided (as well as that
- between it and lseek on the same struct file), but if your directory
- has been opened several times, you can get these called in parallel.
- Exclusion between that method and all directory-modifying ones is
- still provided, of course.
-
- Often enough ->iterate() can serve as ->iterate_shared() without any
- changes - it is a read-only operation, after all. If you have any
- per-inode or per-dentry in-core data structures modified by ->iterate(),
- you might need something to serialize the access to them. If you
- do dcache pre-seeding, you'll need to switch to d_alloc_parallel() for
- that; look for in-tree examples.
-
- Old method is only used if the new one is absent; eventually it will
- be removed. Switch while you still can; the old one won't stay.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->atomic_open() calls without O_CREAT may happen in parallel.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->setxattr() and xattr_handler.set() get dentry and inode passed separately.
- dentry might be yet to be attached to inode, so do _not_ use its ->d_inode
- in the instances. Rationale: !@#!@# security_d_instantiate() needs to be
- called before we attach dentry to inode and !@#!@##!@$!$#!@#$!@$!@$ smack
- ->d_instantiate() uses not just ->getxattr() but ->setxattr() as well.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->d_compare() doesn't get parent as a separate argument anymore. If you
- used it for finding the struct super_block involved, dentry->d_sb will
- work just as well; if it's something more complicated, use dentry->d_parent.
- Just be careful not to assume that fetching it more than once will yield
- the same value - in RCU mode it could change under you.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->rename() has an added flags argument. Any flags not handled by the
- filesystem should result in EINVAL being returned.
---
-[recommended]
- ->readlink is optional for symlinks. Don't set, unless filesystem needs
- to fake something for readlink(2).
---
-[mandatory]
- ->getattr() is now passed a struct path rather than a vfsmount and
- dentry separately, and it now has request_mask and query_flags arguments
- to specify the fields and sync type requested by statx. Filesystems not
- supporting any statx-specific features may ignore the new arguments.
---
-[mandatory]
- ->atomic_open() calling conventions have changed. Gone is int *opened,
- along with FILE_OPENED/FILE_CREATED. In place of those we have
- FMODE_OPENED/FMODE_CREATED, set in file->f_mode. Additionally, return
- value for 'called finish_no_open(), open it yourself' case has become
- 0, not 1. Since finish_no_open() itself is returning 0 now, that part
- does not need any changes in ->atomic_open() instances.
---
-[mandatory]
- alloc_file() has become static now; two wrappers are to be used instead.
- alloc_file_pseudo(inode, vfsmount, name, flags, ops) is for the cases
- when dentry needs to be created; that's the majority of old alloc_file()
- users. Calling conventions: on success a reference to new struct file
- is returned and callers reference to inode is subsumed by that. On
- failure, ERR_PTR() is returned and no caller's references are affected,
- so the caller needs to drop the inode reference it held.
- alloc_file_clone(file, flags, ops) does not affect any caller's references.
- On success you get a new struct file sharing the mount/dentry with the
- original, on failure - ERR_PTR().
---
-[mandatory]
- ->clone_file_range() and ->dedupe_file_range have been replaced with
- ->remap_file_range(). See Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst for more
- information.
---
-[recommended]
- ->lookup() instances doing an equivalent of
- if (IS_ERR(inode))
- return ERR_CAST(inode);
- return d_splice_alias(inode, dentry);
- don't need to bother with the check - d_splice_alias() will do the
- right thing when given ERR_PTR(...) as inode. Moreover, passing NULL
- inode to d_splice_alias() will also do the right thing (equivalent of
- d_add(dentry, NULL); return NULL;), so that kind of special cases
- also doesn't need a separate treatment.
---
-[strongly recommended]
- take the RCU-delayed parts of ->destroy_inode() into a new method -
- ->free_inode(). If ->destroy_inode() becomes empty - all the better,
- just get rid of it. Synchronous work (e.g. the stuff that can't
- be done from an RCU callback, or any WARN_ON() where we want the
- stack trace) *might* be movable to ->evict_inode(); however,
- that goes only for the things that are not needed to balance something
- done by ->alloc_inode(). IOW, if it's cleaning up the stuff that
- might have accumulated over the life of in-core inode, ->evict_inode()
- might be a fit.
-
- Rules for inode destruction:
- * if ->destroy_inode() is non-NULL, it gets called
- * if ->free_inode() is non-NULL, it gets scheduled by call_rcu()
- * combination of NULL ->destroy_inode and NULL ->free_inode is
- treated as NULL/free_inode_nonrcu, to preserve the compatibility.
-
- Note that the callback (be it via ->free_inode() or explicit call_rcu()
- in ->destroy_inode()) is *NOT* ordered wrt superblock destruction;
- as the matter of fact, the superblock and all associated structures
- might be already gone. The filesystem driver is guaranteed to be still
- there, but that's it. Freeing memory in the callback is fine; doing
- more than that is possible, but requires a lot of care and is best
- avoided.
---
-[mandatory]
- DCACHE_RCUACCESS is gone; having an RCU delay on dentry freeing is the
- default. DCACHE_NORCU opts out, and only d_alloc_pseudo() has any
- business doing so.
---
-[mandatory]
- d_alloc_pseudo() is internal-only; uses outside of alloc_file_pseudo() are
- very suspect (and won't work in modules). Such uses are very likely to
- be misspelled d_alloc_anon().

+====================
+Changes since 2.5.0:
+====================
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+New helpers: sb_bread(), sb_getblk(), sb_find_get_block(), set_bh(),
+sb_set_blocksize() and sb_min_blocksize().
+
+Use them.
+
+(sb_find_get_block() replaces 2.4's get_hash_table())
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+New methods: ->alloc_inode() and ->destroy_inode().
+
+Remove inode->u.foo_inode_i
+
+Declare::
+
+ struct foo_inode_info {
+ /* fs-private stuff */
+ struct inode vfs_inode;
+ };
+ static inline struct foo_inode_info *FOO_I(struct inode *inode)
+ {
+ return list_entry(inode, struct foo_inode_info, vfs_inode);
+ }
+
+Use FOO_I(inode) instead of &inode->u.foo_inode_i;
+
+Add foo_alloc_inode() and foo_destroy_inode() - the former should allocate
+foo_inode_info and return the address of ->vfs_inode, the latter should free
+FOO_I(inode) (see in-tree filesystems for examples).
+
+Make them ->alloc_inode and ->destroy_inode in your super_operations.
+
+Keep in mind that now you need explicit initialization of private data
+typically between calling iget_locked() and unlocking the inode.
+
+At some point that will become mandatory.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+Change of file_system_type method (->read_super to ->get_sb)
+
+->read_super() is no more. Ditto for DECLARE_FSTYPE and DECLARE_FSTYPE_DEV.
+
+Turn your foo_read_super() into a function that would return 0 in case of
+success and negative number in case of error (-EINVAL unless you have more
+informative error value to report). Call it foo_fill_super(). Now declare::
+
+ int foo_get_sb(struct file_system_type *fs_type,
+ int flags, const char *dev_name, void *data, struct vfsmount *mnt)
+ {
+ return get_sb_bdev(fs_type, flags, dev_name, data, foo_fill_super,
+ mnt);
+ }
+
+(or similar with s/bdev/nodev/ or s/bdev/single/, depending on the kind of
+filesystem).
+
+Replace DECLARE_FSTYPE... with explicit initializer and have ->get_sb set as
+foo_get_sb.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+Locking change: ->s_vfs_rename_sem is taken only by cross-directory renames.
+Most likely there is no need to change anything, but if you relied on
+global exclusion between renames for some internal purpose - you need to
+change your internal locking. Otherwise exclusion warranties remain the
+same (i.e. parents and victim are locked, etc.).
+
+---
+
+**informational**
+
+Now we have the exclusion between ->lookup() and directory removal (by
+->rmdir() and ->rename()). If you used to need that exclusion and do
+it by internal locking (most of filesystems couldn't care less) - you
+can relax your locking.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->lookup(), ->truncate(), ->create(), ->unlink(), ->mknod(), ->mkdir(),
+->rmdir(), ->link(), ->lseek(), ->symlink(), ->rename()
+and ->readdir() are called without BKL now. Grab it on entry, drop upon return
+- that will guarantee the same locking you used to have. If your method or its
+parts do not need BKL - better yet, now you can shift lock_kernel() and
+unlock_kernel() so that they would protect exactly what needs to be
+protected.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+BKL is also moved from around sb operations. BKL should have been shifted into
+individual fs sb_op functions. If you don't need it, remove it.
+
+---
+
+**informational**
+
+check for ->link() target not being a directory is done by callers. Feel
+free to drop it...
+
+---
+
+**informational**
+
+->link() callers hold ->i_mutex on the object we are linking to. Some of your
+problems might be over...
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+new file_system_type method - kill_sb(superblock). If you are converting
+an existing filesystem, set it according to ->fs_flags::
+
+ FS_REQUIRES_DEV - kill_block_super
+ FS_LITTER - kill_litter_super
+ neither - kill_anon_super
+
+FS_LITTER is gone - just remove it from fs_flags.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+FS_SINGLE is gone (actually, that had happened back when ->get_sb()
+went in - and hadn't been documented ;-/). Just remove it from fs_flags
+(and see ->get_sb() entry for other actions).
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->setattr() is called without BKL now. Caller _always_ holds ->i_mutex, so
+watch for ->i_mutex-grabbing code that might be used by your ->setattr().
+Callers of notify_change() need ->i_mutex now.
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+New super_block field ``struct export_operations *s_export_op`` for
+explicit support for exporting, e.g. via NFS. The structure is fully
+documented at its declaration in include/linux/fs.h, and in
+Documentation/filesystems/nfs/exporting.rst.
+
+Briefly it allows for the definition of decode_fh and encode_fh operations
+to encode and decode filehandles, and allows the filesystem to use
+a standard helper function for decode_fh, and provide file-system specific
+support for this helper, particularly get_parent.
+
+It is planned that this will be required for exporting once the code
+settles down a bit.
+
+**mandatory**
+
+s_export_op is now required for exporting a filesystem.
+isofs, ext2, ext3, resierfs, fat
+can be used as examples of very different filesystems.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+iget4() and the read_inode2 callback have been superseded by iget5_locked()
+which has the following prototype::
+
+ struct inode *iget5_locked(struct super_block *sb, unsigned long ino,
+ int (*test)(struct inode *, void *),
+ int (*set)(struct inode *, void *),
+ void *data);
+
+'test' is an additional function that can be used when the inode
+number is not sufficient to identify the actual file object. 'set'
+should be a non-blocking function that initializes those parts of a
+newly created inode to allow the test function to succeed. 'data' is
+passed as an opaque value to both test and set functions.
+
+When the inode has been created by iget5_locked(), it will be returned with the
+I_NEW flag set and will still be locked. The filesystem then needs to finalize
+the initialization. Once the inode is initialized it must be unlocked by
+calling unlock_new_inode().
+
+The filesystem is responsible for setting (and possibly testing) i_ino
+when appropriate. There is also a simpler iget_locked function that
+just takes the superblock and inode number as arguments and does the
+test and set for you.
+
+e.g.::
+
+ inode = iget_locked(sb, ino);
+ if (inode->i_state & I_NEW) {
+ err = read_inode_from_disk(inode);
+ if (err < 0) {
+ iget_failed(inode);
+ return err;
+ }
+ unlock_new_inode(inode);
+ }
+
+Note that if the process of setting up a new inode fails, then iget_failed()
+should be called on the inode to render it dead, and an appropriate error
+should be passed back to the caller.
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+->getattr() finally getting used. See instances in nfs, minix, etc.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->revalidate() is gone. If your filesystem had it - provide ->getattr()
+and let it call whatever you had as ->revlidate() + (for symlinks that
+had ->revalidate()) add calls in ->follow_link()/->readlink().
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->d_parent changes are not protected by BKL anymore. Read access is safe
+if at least one of the following is true:
+
+ * filesystem has no cross-directory rename()
+ * we know that parent had been locked (e.g. we are looking at
+ ->d_parent of ->lookup() argument).
+ * we are called from ->rename().
+ * the child's ->d_lock is held
+
+Audit your code and add locking if needed. Notice that any place that is
+not protected by the conditions above is risky even in the old tree - you
+had been relying on BKL and that's prone to screwups. Old tree had quite
+a few holes of that kind - unprotected access to ->d_parent leading to
+anything from oops to silent memory corruption.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+FS_NOMOUNT is gone. If you use it - just set SB_NOUSER in flags
+(see rootfs for one kind of solution and bdev/socket/pipe for another).
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+Use bdev_read_only(bdev) instead of is_read_only(kdev). The latter
+is still alive, but only because of the mess in drivers/s390/block/dasd.c.
+As soon as it gets fixed is_read_only() will die.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->permission() is called without BKL now. Grab it on entry, drop upon
+return - that will guarantee the same locking you used to have. If
+your method or its parts do not need BKL - better yet, now you can
+shift lock_kernel() and unlock_kernel() so that they would protect
+exactly what needs to be protected.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->statfs() is now called without BKL held. BKL should have been
+shifted into individual fs sb_op functions where it's not clear that
+it's safe to remove it. If you don't need it, remove it.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+is_read_only() is gone; use bdev_read_only() instead.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+destroy_buffers() is gone; use invalidate_bdev().
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+fsync_dev() is gone; use fsync_bdev(). NOTE: lvm breakage is
+deliberate; as soon as struct block_device * is propagated in a reasonable
+way by that code fixing will become trivial; until then nothing can be
+done.
+
+**mandatory**
+
+block truncatation on error exit from ->write_begin, and ->direct_IO
+moved from generic methods (block_write_begin, cont_write_begin,
+nobh_write_begin, blockdev_direct_IO*) to callers. Take a look at
+ext2_write_failed and callers for an example.
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->truncate is gone. The whole truncate sequence needs to be
+implemented in ->setattr, which is now mandatory for filesystems
+implementing on-disk size changes. Start with a copy of the old inode_setattr
+and vmtruncate, and the reorder the vmtruncate + foofs_vmtruncate sequence to
+be in order of zeroing blocks using block_truncate_page or similar helpers,
+size update and on finally on-disk truncation which should not fail.
+setattr_prepare (which used to be inode_change_ok) now includes the size checks
+for ATTR_SIZE and must be called in the beginning of ->setattr unconditionally.
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->clear_inode() and ->delete_inode() are gone; ->evict_inode() should
+be used instead. It gets called whenever the inode is evicted, whether it has
+remaining links or not. Caller does *not* evict the pagecache or inode-associated
+metadata buffers; the method has to use truncate_inode_pages_final() to get rid
+of those. Caller makes sure async writeback cannot be running for the inode while
+(or after) ->evict_inode() is called.
+
+->drop_inode() returns int now; it's called on final iput() with
+inode->i_lock held and it returns true if filesystems wants the inode to be
+dropped. As before, generic_drop_inode() is still the default and it's been
+updated appropriately. generic_delete_inode() is also alive and it consists
+simply of return 1. Note that all actual eviction work is done by caller after
+->drop_inode() returns.
+
+As before, clear_inode() must be called exactly once on each call of
+->evict_inode() (as it used to be for each call of ->delete_inode()). Unlike
+before, if you are using inode-associated metadata buffers (i.e.
+mark_buffer_dirty_inode()), it's your responsibility to call
+invalidate_inode_buffers() before clear_inode().
+
+NOTE: checking i_nlink in the beginning of ->write_inode() and bailing out
+if it's zero is not *and* *never* *had* *been* enough. Final unlink() and iput()
+may happen while the inode is in the middle of ->write_inode(); e.g. if you blindly
+free the on-disk inode, you may end up doing that while ->write_inode() is writing
+to it.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+.d_delete() now only advises the dcache as to whether or not to cache
+unreferenced dentries, and is now only called when the dentry refcount goes to
+0. Even on 0 refcount transition, it must be able to tolerate being called 0,
+1, or more times (eg. constant, idempotent).
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+.d_compare() calling convention and locking rules are significantly
+changed. Read updated documentation in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst (and
+look at examples of other filesystems) for guidance.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+.d_hash() calling convention and locking rules are significantly
+changed. Read updated documentation in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst (and
+look at examples of other filesystems) for guidance.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+dcache_lock is gone, replaced by fine grained locks. See fs/dcache.c
+for details of what locks to replace dcache_lock with in order to protect
+particular things. Most of the time, a filesystem only needs ->d_lock, which
+protects *all* the dcache state of a given dentry.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+Filesystems must RCU-free their inodes, if they can have been accessed
+via rcu-walk path walk (basically, if the file can have had a path name in the
+vfs namespace).
+
+Even though i_dentry and i_rcu share storage in a union, we will
+initialize the former in inode_init_always(), so just leave it alone in
+the callback. It used to be necessary to clean it there, but not anymore
+(starting at 3.2).
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+vfs now tries to do path walking in "rcu-walk mode", which avoids
+atomic operations and scalability hazards on dentries and inodes (see
+Documentation/filesystems/path-lookup.txt). d_hash and d_compare changes
+(above) are examples of the changes required to support this. For more complex
+filesystem callbacks, the vfs drops out of rcu-walk mode before the fs call, so
+no changes are required to the filesystem. However, this is costly and loses
+the benefits of rcu-walk mode. We will begin to add filesystem callbacks that
+are rcu-walk aware, shown below. Filesystems should take advantage of this
+where possible.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+d_revalidate is a callback that is made on every path element (if
+the filesystem provides it), which requires dropping out of rcu-walk mode. This
+may now be called in rcu-walk mode (nd->flags & LOOKUP_RCU). -ECHILD should be
+returned if the filesystem cannot handle rcu-walk. See
+Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst for more details.
+
+permission is an inode permission check that is called on many or all
+directory inodes on the way down a path walk (to check for exec permission). It
+must now be rcu-walk aware (mask & MAY_NOT_BLOCK). See
+Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst for more details.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+In ->fallocate() you must check the mode option passed in. If your
+filesystem does not support hole punching (deallocating space in the middle of a
+file) you must return -EOPNOTSUPP if FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE is set in mode.
+Currently you can only have FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE with FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE set,
+so the i_size should not change when hole punching, even when puching the end of
+a file off.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->get_sb() is gone. Switch to use of ->mount(). Typically it's just
+a matter of switching from calling ``get_sb_``... to ``mount_``... and changing
+the function type. If you were doing it manually, just switch from setting
+->mnt_root to some pointer to returning that pointer. On errors return
+ERR_PTR(...).
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->permission() and generic_permission()have lost flags
+argument; instead of passing IPERM_FLAG_RCU we add MAY_NOT_BLOCK into mask.
+
+generic_permission() has also lost the check_acl argument; ACL checking
+has been taken to VFS and filesystems need to provide a non-NULL ->i_op->get_acl
+to read an ACL from disk.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+If you implement your own ->llseek() you must handle SEEK_HOLE and
+SEEK_DATA. You can hanle this by returning -EINVAL, but it would be nicer to
+support it in some way. The generic handler assumes that the entire file is
+data and there is a virtual hole at the end of the file. So if the provided
+offset is less than i_size and SEEK_DATA is specified, return the same offset.
+If the above is true for the offset and you are given SEEK_HOLE, return the end
+of the file. If the offset is i_size or greater return -ENXIO in either case.
+
+**mandatory**
+
+If you have your own ->fsync() you must make sure to call
+filemap_write_and_wait_range() so that all dirty pages are synced out properly.
+You must also keep in mind that ->fsync() is not called with i_mutex held
+anymore, so if you require i_mutex locking you must make sure to take it and
+release it yourself.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+d_alloc_root() is gone, along with a lot of bugs caused by code
+misusing it. Replacement: d_make_root(inode). On success d_make_root(inode)
+allocates and returns a new dentry instantiated with the passed in inode.
+On failure NULL is returned and the passed in inode is dropped so the reference
+to inode is consumed in all cases and failure handling need not do any cleanup
+for the inode. If d_make_root(inode) is passed a NULL inode it returns NULL
+and also requires no further error handling. Typical usage is::
+
+ inode = foofs_new_inode(....);
+ s->s_root = d_make_root(inode);
+ if (!s->s_root)
+ /* Nothing needed for the inode cleanup */
+ return -ENOMEM;
+ ...
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+The witch is dead! Well, 2/3 of it, anyway. ->d_revalidate() and
+->lookup() do *not* take struct nameidata anymore; just the flags.

+
+---
+

+
+any symlink that might use page_follow_link_light/page_put_link() must

+
+->getxattr() and xattr_handler.get() get dentry and inode passed separately.
+dentry might be yet to be attached to inode, so do _not_ use its ->d_inode
+in the instances. Rationale: !@#!@# security_d_instantiate() needs to be
+called before we attach dentry to inode.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+symlinks are no longer the only inodes that do *not* have i_bdev/i_cdev/
+i_pipe/i_link union zeroed out at inode eviction. As the result, you can't
+assume that non-NULL value in ->i_nlink at ->destroy_inode() implies that
+it's a symlink. Checking ->i_mode is really needed now. In-tree we had
+to fix shmem_destroy_callback() that used to take that kind of shortcut;
+watch out, since that shortcut is no longer valid.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->i_mutex is replaced with ->i_rwsem now. inode_lock() et.al. work as
+they used to - they just take it exclusive. However, ->lookup() may be
+called with parent locked shared. Its instances must not
+
+ * use d_instantiate) and d_rehash() separately - use d_add() or
+ d_splice_alias() instead.
+ * use d_rehash() alone - call d_add(new_dentry, NULL) instead.
+ * in the unlikely case when (read-only) access to filesystem
+ data structures needs exclusion for some reason, arrange it
+ yourself. None of the in-tree filesystems needed that.
+ * rely on ->d_parent and ->d_name not changing after dentry has
+ been fed to d_add() or d_splice_alias(). Again, none of the
+ in-tree instances relied upon that.
+
+We are guaranteed that lookups of the same name in the same directory
+will not happen in parallel ("same" in the sense of your ->d_compare()).
+Lookups on different names in the same directory can and do happen in
+parallel now.
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+->iterate_shared() is added; it's a parallel variant of ->iterate().
+Exclusion on struct file level is still provided (as well as that
+between it and lseek on the same struct file), but if your directory
+has been opened several times, you can get these called in parallel.
+Exclusion between that method and all directory-modifying ones is
+still provided, of course.
+
+Often enough ->iterate() can serve as ->iterate_shared() without any
+changes - it is a read-only operation, after all. If you have any
+per-inode or per-dentry in-core data structures modified by ->iterate(),
+you might need something to serialize the access to them. If you
+do dcache pre-seeding, you'll need to switch to d_alloc_parallel() for
+that; look for in-tree examples.
+
+Old method is only used if the new one is absent; eventually it will
+be removed. Switch while you still can; the old one won't stay.
+

+
+**mandatory**
+
+->atomic_open() calls without O_CREAT may happen in parallel.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->setxattr() and xattr_handler.set() get dentry and inode passed separately.
+dentry might be yet to be attached to inode, so do _not_ use its ->d_inode
+in the instances. Rationale: !@#!@# security_d_instantiate() needs to be
+called before we attach dentry to inode and !@#!@##!@$!$#!@#$!@$!@$ smack
+->d_instantiate() uses not just ->getxattr() but ->setxattr() as well.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->d_compare() doesn't get parent as a separate argument anymore. If you
+used it for finding the struct super_block involved, dentry->d_sb will
+work just as well; if it's something more complicated, use dentry->d_parent.
+Just be careful not to assume that fetching it more than once will yield
+the same value - in RCU mode it could change under you.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->rename() has an added flags argument. Any flags not handled by the
+filesystem should result in EINVAL being returned.
+
+---
+
+
+**recommended**
+
+->readlink is optional for symlinks. Don't set, unless filesystem needs
+to fake something for readlink(2).
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->getattr() is now passed a struct path rather than a vfsmount and
+dentry separately, and it now has request_mask and query_flags arguments
+to specify the fields and sync type requested by statx. Filesystems not
+supporting any statx-specific features may ignore the new arguments.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->atomic_open() calling conventions have changed. Gone is ``int *opened``,
+along with FILE_OPENED/FILE_CREATED. In place of those we have
+FMODE_OPENED/FMODE_CREATED, set in file->f_mode. Additionally, return
+value for 'called finish_no_open(), open it yourself' case has become
+0, not 1. Since finish_no_open() itself is returning 0 now, that part
+does not need any changes in ->atomic_open() instances.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+alloc_file() has become static now; two wrappers are to be used instead.
+alloc_file_pseudo(inode, vfsmount, name, flags, ops) is for the cases
+when dentry needs to be created; that's the majority of old alloc_file()
+users. Calling conventions: on success a reference to new struct file
+is returned and callers reference to inode is subsumed by that. On
+failure, ERR_PTR() is returned and no caller's references are affected,
+so the caller needs to drop the inode reference it held.
+alloc_file_clone(file, flags, ops) does not affect any caller's references.
+On success you get a new struct file sharing the mount/dentry with the
+original, on failure - ERR_PTR().
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+->clone_file_range() and ->dedupe_file_range have been replaced with
+->remap_file_range(). See Documentation/filesystems/vfs.rst for more
+information.
+
+---
+
+**recommended**
+
+->lookup() instances doing an equivalent of::
+
+ if (IS_ERR(inode))
+ return ERR_CAST(inode);
+ return d_splice_alias(inode, dentry);
+
+don't need to bother with the check - d_splice_alias() will do the
+right thing when given ERR_PTR(...) as inode. Moreover, passing NULL
+inode to d_splice_alias() will also do the right thing (equivalent of
+d_add(dentry, NULL); return NULL;), so that kind of special cases
+also doesn't need a separate treatment.
+
+---
+
+**strongly recommended**
+
+take the RCU-delayed parts of ->destroy_inode() into a new method -
+->free_inode(). If ->destroy_inode() becomes empty - all the better,
+just get rid of it. Synchronous work (e.g. the stuff that can't
+be done from an RCU callback, or any WARN_ON() where we want the
+stack trace) *might* be movable to ->evict_inode(); however,
+that goes only for the things that are not needed to balance something
+done by ->alloc_inode(). IOW, if it's cleaning up the stuff that
+might have accumulated over the life of in-core inode, ->evict_inode()
+might be a fit.
+
+Rules for inode destruction:
+
+ * if ->destroy_inode() is non-NULL, it gets called
+ * if ->free_inode() is non-NULL, it gets scheduled by call_rcu()
+ * combination of NULL ->destroy_inode and NULL ->free_inode is
+ treated as NULL/free_inode_nonrcu, to preserve the compatibility.
+
+Note that the callback (be it via ->free_inode() or explicit call_rcu()
+in ->destroy_inode()) is *NOT* ordered wrt superblock destruction;
+as the matter of fact, the superblock and all associated structures
+might be already gone. The filesystem driver is guaranteed to be still
+there, but that's it. Freeing memory in the callback is fine; doing
+more than that is possible, but requires a lot of care and is best
+avoided.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+DCACHE_RCUACCESS is gone; having an RCU delay on dentry freeing is the
+default. DCACHE_NORCU opts out, and only d_alloc_pseudo() has any
+business doing so.
+
+---
+
+**mandatory**
+
+d_alloc_pseudo() is internal-only; uses outside of alloc_file_pseudo() are
+very suspect (and won't work in modules). Such uses are very likely to
+be misspelled d_alloc_anon().

-Kernel driver i2c-parport
-
-Author: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de>
-
-This is a unified driver for several i2c-over-parallel-port adapters,
-such as the ones made by Philips, Velleman or ELV. This driver is
-meant as a replacement for the older, individual drivers:
- * i2c-philips-par
- * i2c-elv
- * i2c-velleman
- * video/i2c-parport (NOT the same as this one, dedicated to home brew
- teletext adapters)
-
-It currently supports the following devices:
- * (type=0) Philips adapter
- * (type=1) home brew teletext adapter
- * (type=2) Velleman K8000 adapter
- * (type=3) ELV adapter
- * (type=4) Analog Devices ADM1032 evaluation board
- * (type=5) Analog Devices evaluation boards: ADM1025, ADM1030, ADM1031
- * (type=6) Barco LPT->DVI (K5800236) adapter
- * (type=7) One For All JP1 parallel port adapter
- * (type=8) VCT-jig
-
-These devices use different pinout configurations, so you have to tell
-the driver what you have, using the type module parameter. There is no
-way to autodetect the devices. Support for different pinout configurations
-can be easily added when needed.
-
-Earlier kernels defaulted to type=0 (Philips). But now, if the type
-parameter is missing, the driver will simply fail to initialize.
-
-SMBus alert support is available on adapters which have this line properly
-connected to the parallel port's interrupt pin.

@@ -174,39 +180,39 @@ Implementation details
For the interested, here's the code flow which happens inside the kernel
when you use the /dev interface to I2C:
-1* Your program opens /dev/i2c-N and calls ioctl() on it, as described in
-section "C example" above.
-
-2* These open() and ioctl() calls are handled by the i2c-dev kernel
-driver: see i2c-dev.c:i2cdev_open() and i2c-dev.c:i2cdev_ioctl(),
-respectively. You can think of i2c-dev as a generic I2C chip driver
-that can be programmed from user-space.
-
-3* Some ioctl() calls are for administrative tasks and are handled by
-i2c-dev directly. Examples include I2C_SLAVE (set the address of the
-device you want to access) and I2C_PEC (enable or disable SMBus error
-checking on future transactions.)
-
-4* Other ioctl() calls are converted to in-kernel function calls by
-i2c-dev. Examples include I2C_FUNCS, which queries the I2C adapter
-functionality using i2c.h:i2c_get_functionality(), and I2C_SMBUS, which
-performs an SMBus transaction using i2c-core-smbus.c:i2c_smbus_xfer().
-
-The i2c-dev driver is responsible for checking all the parameters that
-come from user-space for validity. After this point, there is no
-difference between these calls that came from user-space through i2c-dev
-and calls that would have been performed by kernel I2C chip drivers
-directly. This means that I2C bus drivers don't need to implement
-anything special to support access from user-space.
-
-5* These i2c.h functions are wrappers to the actual implementation of
-your I2C bus driver. Each adapter must declare callback functions
-implementing these standard calls. i2c.h:i2c_get_functionality() calls
-i2c_adapter.algo->functionality(), while

+1) Your program opens /dev/i2c-N and calls ioctl() on it, as described in
+ section "C example" above.
+
+2) These open() and ioctl() calls are handled by the i2c-dev kernel
+ driver: see i2c-dev.c:i2cdev_open() and i2c-dev.c:i2cdev_ioctl(),
+ respectively. You can think of i2c-dev as a generic I2C chip driver
+ that can be programmed from user-space.
+
+3) Some ioctl() calls are for administrative tasks and are handled by
+ i2c-dev directly. Examples include I2C_SLAVE (set the address of the
+ device you want to access) and I2C_PEC (enable or disable SMBus error
+ checking on future transactions.)
+
+4) Other ioctl() calls are converted to in-kernel function calls by
+ i2c-dev. Examples include I2C_FUNCS, which queries the I2C adapter
+ functionality using i2c.h:i2c_get_functionality(), and I2C_SMBUS, which
+ performs an SMBus transaction using i2c-core-smbus.c:i2c_smbus_xfer().
+
+ The i2c-dev driver is responsible for checking all the parameters that
+ come from user-space for validity. After this point, there is no
+ difference between these calls that came from user-space through i2c-dev
+ and calls that would have been performed by kernel I2C chip drivers
+ directly. This means that I2C bus drivers don't need to implement
+ anything special to support access from user-space.
+
+5) These i2c.h functions are wrappers to the actual implementation of
+ your I2C bus driver. Each adapter must declare callback functions
+ implementing these standard calls. i2c.h:i2c_get_functionality() calls
+ i2c_adapter.algo->functionality(), while
+ i2c-core-smbus.c:i2c_smbus_xfer() calls either
+ adapter.algo->smbus_xfer() if it is implemented, or if not,
+ i2c-core-smbus.c:i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() which in turn calls
+ i2c_adapter.algo->master_xfer().
After your I2C bus driver has processed these requests, execution runs
up the call chain, with almost no processing done, except by i2c-dev to

3.2. Telling the driver to provide more information
- ----------------------------------------------
+---------------------------------------------------
Building the driver with the "Gigaset debugging" kernel configuration
option (CONFIG_GIGASET_DEBUG) gives it the ability to produce additional
information useful for debugging.
You can control the amount of debugging information the driver produces by
- writing an appropriate value to /sys/module/gigaset/parameters/debug, e.g.
- echo 0 > /sys/module/gigaset/parameters/debug
+ writing an appropriate value to /sys/module/gigaset/parameters/debug,
+ e.g.::
+
+ echo 0 > /sys/module/gigaset/parameters/debug
+
switches off debugging output completely,
- echo 0x302020 > /sys/module/gigaset/parameters/debug
+
+ ::
+
+ echo 0x302020 > /sys/module/gigaset/parameters/debug
+
enables a reasonable set of debugging output messages. These values are
bit patterns where every bit controls a certain type of debugging output.
See the constants DEBUG_* in the source file gigaset.h for details.
The initial value can be set using the debug parameter when loading the
- module "gigaset", e.g. by adding a line
- options gigaset debug=0
+ module "gigaset", e.g. by adding a line::
+
+ options gigaset debug=0
+
to your module configuration file, eg. /etc/modprobe.d/gigaset.conf
Generated debugging information can be found
- - as output of the command
- dmesg
+ - as output of the command::
+
+ dmesg
+
- in system log files written by your syslog daemon, usually
in /var/log/, e.g. /var/log/messages.

+===================
+Reproducible builds
+===================
+
+It is generally desirable that building the same source code with
+the same set of tools is reproducible, i.e. the output is always
+exactly the same. This makes it possible to verify that the build
+infrastructure for a binary distribution or embedded system has not
+been subverted. This can also make it easier to verify that a source
+or tool change does not make any difference to the resulting binaries.
+
+The `Reproducible Builds project`_ has more information about this
+general topic. This document covers the various reasons why building
+the kernel may be unreproducible, and how to avoid them.
+
+Timestamps
+----------
+
+The kernel embeds a timestamp in two places:
+
+* The version string exposed by ``uname()`` and included in
+ ``/proc/version``
+
+* File timestamps in the embedded initramfs
+
+By default the timestamp is the current time. This must be overridden
+using the `KBUILD_BUILD_TIMESTAMP`_ variable. If you are building
+from a git commit, you could use its commit date.
+
+The kernel does *not* use the ``__DATE__`` and ``__TIME__`` macros,
+and enables warnings if they are used. If you incorporate external
+code that does use these, you must override the timestamp they
+correspond to by setting the `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`_ environment
+variable.
+
+User, host
+----------
+
+The kernel embeds the building user and host names in
+``/proc/version``. These must be overridden using the
+`KBUILD_BUILD_USER and KBUILD_BUILD_HOST`_ variables. If you are
+building from a git commit, you could use its committer address.
+
+Absolute filenames
+------------------
+
+When the kernel is built out-of-tree, debug information may include
+absolute filenames for the source files. This must be overridden by
+including the ``-fdebug-prefix-map`` option in the `KCFLAGS`_ variable.
+
+Depending on the compiler used, the ``__FILE__`` macro may also expand
+to an absolute filename in an out-of-tree build. Kbuild automatically
+uses the ``-fmacro-prefix-map`` option to prevent this, if it is
+supported.
+
+The Reproducible Builds web site has more information about these
+`prefix-map options`_.
+
+Generated files in source packages
+----------------------------------
+
+The build processes for some programs under the ``tools/``
+subdirectory do not completely support out-of-tree builds. This may
+cause a later source package build using e.g. ``make rpm-pkg`` to
+include generated files. You should ensure the source tree is
+pristine by running ``make mrproper`` or ``git clean -d -f -x`` before
+building a source package.
+
+Module signing
+--------------
+
+If you enable ``CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL``, the default behaviour is to
+generate a different temporary key for each build, resulting in the
+modules being unreproducible. However, including a signing key with
+your source would presumably defeat the purpose of signing modules.
+
+One approach to this is to divide up the build process so that the
+unreproducible parts can be treated as sources:
+
+1. Generate a persistent signing key. Add the certificate for the key
+ to the kernel source.
+
+2. Set the ``CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS`` symbol to include the
+ signing key's certificate, set ``CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_KEY`` to an
+ empty string, and disable ``CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_ALL``.
+ Build the kernel and modules.
+
+3. Create detached signatures for the modules, and publish them as
+ sources.
+
+4. Perform a second build that attaches the module signatures. It
+ can either rebuild the modules or use the output of step 2.
+
+Structure randomisation
+-----------------------
+
+If you enable ``CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT``, you will need to
+pre-generate the random seed in
+``scripts/gcc-plgins/randomize_layout_seed.h`` so the same value
+is used in rebuilds.
+
+Debug info conflicts
+--------------------

+This is not a problem of unreproducibility, but of generated files
+being *too* reproducible.
+
+Once you set all the necessary variables for a reproducible build, a
+vDSO's debug information may be identical even for different kernel
+versions. This can result in file conflicts between debug information
+packages for the different kernel versions.
+
+To avoid this, you can make the vDSO different for different
+kernel versions by including an arbitrary string of "salt" in it.
+This is specified by the Kconfig symbol ``CONFIG_BUILD_SALT``.

+TPM Event Log
+=============
+
+This document briefly describes what TPM log is and how it is handed
+over from the preboot firmware to the operating system.
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The preboot firmware maintains an event log that gets new entries every
+time something gets hashed by it to any of the PCR registers. The events
+are segregated by their type and contain the value of the hashed PCR
+register. Typically, the preboot firmware will hash the components to
+who execution is to be handed over or actions relevant to the boot
+process.
+
+The main application for this is remote attestation and the reason why
+it is useful is nicely put in the very first section of [1]:
+
+"Attestation is used to provide information about the platform’s state
+to a challenger. However, PCR contents are difficult to interpret;
+therefore, attestation is typically more useful when the PCR contents
+are accompanied by a measurement log. While not trusted on their own,
+the measurement log contains a richer set of information than do the PCR
+contents. The PCR contents are used to provide the validation of the
+measurement log."
+
+UEFI event log
+==============
+
+UEFI provided event log has a few somewhat weird quirks.
+
+Before calling ExitBootServices() Linux EFI stub copies the event log to
+a custom configuration table defined by the stub itself. Unfortunately,
+the events generated by ExitBootServices() don't end up in the table.
+
+The firmware provides so called final events configuration table to sort
+out this issue. Events gets mirrored to this table after the first time
+EFI_TCG2_PROTOCOL.GetEventLog() gets called.
+
+This introduces another problem: nothing guarantees that it is not called
+before the Linux EFI stub gets to run. Thus, it needs to calculate and save the
+final events table size while the stub is still running to the custom
+configuration table so that the TPM driver can later on skip these events when
+concatenating two halves of the event log from the custom configuration table
+and the final events table.

The devices that appear on the "coresight" bus were named the same as their

Thus the names were based on the Linux Open Firmware layer naming convention,
which follows the base physical address of the device followed by the device
