Merge tag 'for-6.11-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
 "The highlights are new logic behind background block group reclaim,
  automatic removal of qgroup after removing a subvolume and new
  'rescue=' mount options.

  The rest is optimizations, cleanups and refactoring.

  User visible features:

   - dynamic block group reclaim:
      - tunable framework to avoid situations where eager data
        allocations prevent creating new metadata chunks due to lack of
        unallocated space
      - reuse sysfs knob bg_reclaim_threshold (otherwise used only in
        zoned mode) for a fixed value threshold
      - new on/off sysfs knob "dynamic_reclaim" calculating the value
        based on heuristics, aiming to keep spare working space for
        relocating chunks but not to needlessly relocate partially
        utilized block groups or reclaim newly allocated ones
      - stats are exported in sysfs per block group type, files
        "reclaim_*"
      - this may increase IO load at unexpected times but the corner
        case of no allocatable block groups is known to be worse

   - automatically remove qgroup of deleted subvolumes:
      - adjust qgroup removal conditions, make sure all related
        subvolume data are already removed, or return EBUSY, also take
        into account setting of sysfs drop_subtree_threshold
      - also works in squota mode

   - mount option updates: new modes of 'rescue=' that allow to mount
     images (read-only) that could have been partially converted by user
     space tools
      - ignoremetacsums  - invalid metadata checksums are ignored
      - ignoresuperflags - super block flags that track conversion in
                           progress (like UUID or checksums)

  Core:

   - size of struct btrfs_inode is now below 1024 (on a release config),
     improved memory packing and other secondary effects

   - switch tracking of open inodes from rb-tree to xarray, minor
     performance improvement

   - reduce number of empty transaction commits when there are no dirty
     data/metadata

   - memory allocation optimizations (reduced numbers, reordering out of
     critical sections)

   - extent map structure optimizations and refactoring, more sanity
     checks

   - more subpage in zoned mode preparations or fixes

   - general snapshot code cleanups, improvements and documentation

   - tree-checker updates: more file extent ram_bytes fixes, continued

   - raid-stripe-tree update (not backward compatible):
      - remove extent encoding field from the structure, can be inferred
        from other information
      - requires btrfs-progs 6.9.1 or newer

   - cleanups and refactoring
      - error message updates
      - error handling improvements
      - return type and parameter cleanups and improvements"

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 reStructuredText 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.
