mainlining shenanigans
087f757b01
Various filesystem support the shutdown ioctl which is used by various xfstests. The shutdown ioctl sets a flag on the superblock which prevents open, unlink, symlink, hardlink, rmdir, create etc. on the file system until unmount and remounted. The two flags supported in this patch are: FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_LOGFLUSH and FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_NOLOGFLUSH which require very little other than blocking new operations (since we do not cache writes to metadata on the client with cifs.ko). FSOP_GOING_FLAGS_DEFAULT is not supported yet, but could be added in the future but would need to call syncfs or equivalent to write out pending data on the mount. With this patch various xfstests now work including tests 043 through 046 for example. Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: Aurelien Aptel <aaptel@suse.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.
