mainlining shenanigans
06252e9ce0
DAX is quite useful for some VM use cases in order to save guest memory extremely with minimal lightweight EROFS. In order to prepare for such use cases, add preliminary dax support for non-tailpacking regular files for now. Tested with the DRAM-emulated PMEM and the EROFS image generated by "mkfs.erofs -Enoinline_data enwik9.fsdax.img enwik9" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210805003601.183063-3-hsiangkao@linux.alibaba.com Cc: nvdimm@lists.linux.dev Cc: linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Chao Yu <chao@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Gao Xiang <hsiangkao@linux.alibaba.com> |

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.
