This doc hasn't been touched in a while, in the meantime some
new io schedulers were added (e.g. all of mq), some with ioprio
support.
Also reword the introduction to remove reference to CFQ and the
limitation that io priorities only work on reads, which is no longer
true.

The capability attribute was added in 2017 to expose the kernel internal
GENHD_FL_MEDIA_CHANGE_NOTIFY to userspace without ever adding a value to
an UAPI header, and without ever setting it in any driver until it was
finally removed in Linux 5.7.
Deprecate the file and always return 0 instead of exposing the other
internal and frequently renumbered other gendisk flags.

unprivileged ublk device is helpful for container use case, such
as: ublk device created in one unprivileged container can be controlled
and accessed by this container only.
Implement this feature by adding flag of UBLK_F_UNPRIVILEGED_DEV, and if
this flag isn't set, any control command has been run from privileged
user. Otherwise, any control command can be sent from any unprivileged
user, but the user has to be permitted to access the ublk char device
to be controlled.
In case of UBLK_F_UNPRIVILEGED_DEV:
1) for command UBLK_CMD_ADD_DEV, it is always allowed, and user needs
to provide owner's uid/gid in this command, so that udev can set correct
ownership for the created ublk device, since the device owner uid/gid
can be queried via command of UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO.
2) for other control commands, they can only be run successfully if the
current user is allowed to access the specified ublk char device, for
running the permission check, path of the ublk char device has to be
provided by these commands.
Also add one control of command UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO2 which always
include the char dev path in payload since userspace may not have
knowledge if this device is created in unprivileged mode.
For applying this mechanism, system administrator needs to take
the following policies:
1) chmod 0666 /dev/ublk-control
2) change ownership of ublkcN & ublkbN
- chown owner_uid:owner_gid /dev/ublkcN
- chown owner_uid:owner_gid /dev/ublkbN
Both can be done via one simple udev rule.
Userspace:
https://github.com/ming1/ubdsrv/tree/unprivileged-ublk
'ublk add -t $TYPE --un_privileged=1' is for creating one un-privileged
ublk device if the user is un-privileged.

has removed blk_run_address_space(), blk_unplug() and sync_buffer(),

Currently the fscrypt inline encryption support is documented in the
"Implementation details" section, and it doesn't go into much detail.
It's really more than just an "implementation detail" though, as there
is a user-facing mount option. Also, hardware-wrapped key support (an
upcoming feature) will depend on inline encryption and will affect the
on-disk format; by definition that's not just an implementation detail.
Therefore, move this documentation into its own section and expand it.

A few of the Documentation .rst files begin with a Unicode
byte order mark (BOM). The BOM may signify endianess for
16-bit or 32-bit encodings or indicate that the text stream
is indeed Unicode. We don't need it for either of those uses.
It may also interfere with (confuse) some software.
Since we don't need it and its use is optional, just delete
the uses of it in Documentation/.

Per ZBC and ZAC specifications, host-managed SMR hard-disks mandate that
all writes into sequential write required zones be aligned to the device
physical block size. However, NVMe ZNS does not have this constraint and
allows write operations into sequential zones to be aligned to the
device logical block size. This inconsistency does not help with
software portability across device types.
To solve this, introduce the zone_write_granularity queue limit to
indicate the alignment constraint, in bytes, of write operations into
zones of a zoned block device. This new limit is exported as a
read-only sysfs queue attribute and the helper
blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() introduced for drivers to set this
limit.
The function blk_queue_set_zoned() is modified to set this new limit to
the device logical block size by default. NVMe ZNS devices as well as
zoned nullb devices use this default value as is. The scsi disk driver
is modified to execute the blk_queue_zone_write_granularity() helper to
set the zone write granularity of host-managed SMR disks to the disk
physical block size.
The accessor functions queue_zone_write_granularity() and
bdev_zone_write_granularity() are also introduced.

Add a resource-managed variant of blk_ksm_init() so that drivers don't
have to worry about calling blk_ksm_destroy().
Note that the implementation uses a custom devres action to call
blk_ksm_destroy() rather than switching the two allocations to be
directly devres-managed, e.g. with devm_kmalloc(). This is because we
need to keep zeroing the memory containing the keyslots when it is
freed, and also because we want to continue using kvmalloc() (and there
is no devm_kvmalloc()).

zero-length bvec segments are allowed in general, but not handled by bio
and down the block layer so filtered out. This inconsistency may be
confusing and prevent from optimisations. As zero-length segments are
useless and places that were generating them are patched, declare them
not allowed.

The :c:type macros are not used properly there, as reported
by Sphinx 3:
./Documentation/block/blk-mq.rst:112: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'hctx->dispatch'
Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 4]
hctx->dispatch
----^
Also, they won't be generating any cross references.
So, replace them by a literal markup.

The :c:type:`foo` only works properly with structs before
Sphinx 3.x.
On Sphinx 3.x, structs should now be declared using the
.. c:struct, and referenced via :c:struct tag.
As we now have the automarkup.py macro, that automatically
convert:
struct foo
into cross-references, let's get rid of that, solving
several warnings when building docs with Sphinx 3.x.

A zoned device with limited resources to open or activate zones may
return an error when the host exceeds those limits. The same command may
be successful if retried later, but the host needs to wait for specific
zone states before it should expect a retry to succeed. Have the block
layer provide an appropriate status for these conditions so applications
can distinuguish this error for special handling.

Add a new max_active zones definition in the sysfs documentation.
This definition will be common for all devices utilizing the zoned block
device support in the kernel.
Export max_active_zones according to this new definition for NVMe Zoned
Namespace devices, ZAC ATA devices (which are treated as SCSI devices by
the kernel), and ZBC SCSI devices.
Add the new max_active_zones member to struct request_queue, rather
than as a queue limit, since this property cannot be split across stacking
drivers.
For SCSI devices, even though max active zones is not part of the ZBC/ZAC
spec, export max_active_zones as 0, signifying "no limit".
