2020-05-05docs: filesystems: convert coda.txt to ReSTMauro Carvalho Chehab
This document has its own style. It seems to be print output for the old matrixial printers where backspace were used to do double prints. For the conversion, I used several regex expressions to get rid of some weird stuff. The patch also does almost all possible conversions in order to get a nice output document, while keeping it readable/editable as is: - Add a SPDX header; - Add a document title; - Adjust document title; - Adjust section titles; - Some whitespace fixes and new line breaks; - Mark literal blocks as such; - Adjust list markups; - Mark some unumbered titles with bold font; - Use footnoote markups; - Add table markups; - Use notes markups; - Add it to filesystems/index.rst.

2019-07-16coda: change Coda's user api to use 64-bit time_t in timespecJan Harkes
Move the 32-bit time_t problems to userspace.

2019-07-16coda: stop using 'struct timespec' in user APIArnd Bergmann
We exchange file timestamps with user space using psdev device read/write operations with a fixed but architecture specific binary layout. On 32-bit systems, this uses a 'timespec' structure that is defined by the C library to contain two 32-bit values for seconds and nanoseconds. As we get ready for the year 2038 overflow of the 32-bit signed seconds, the kernel now uses 64-bit timestamps internally, and user space will do the same change by changing the 'timespec' definition in the future. Unfortunately, this breaks the layout of the coda_vattr structure, so we need to redefine that in terms of something that does not change. I'm introducing a new 'struct vtimespec' structure here that keeps the existing layout, and the same change has to be done in the coda user space copy of linux/coda.h before anyone can use that on a 32-bit architecture with 64-bit time_t. An open question is what should happen to actual times past y2038, as they are now truncated to the last valid date when sent to user space, and interpreted as pre-1970 times when a timestamp with the MSB set is read back into the kernel. Alternatively, we could change the new timespec64_to_coda()/coda_to_timespec64() functions to use a different interpretation and extend the available range further to the future by disallowing past timestamps. This would require more changes in the user space side though.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
