The V4 filesystem format contains known weaknesses in the on-disk format that make metadata verification diffiult. In addition, the format does not support dates past 2038 and will not be upgraded to do so. We should start the process of retiring the old format to close off attack surfaces and to encourage users to migrate onto V5. Therefore, make XFS V4 support a configurable option. For the first period it will be default Y in case some distributors want to withdraw support early; for the second period it will be default N so that anyone who wishes to continue support can do so; and after that, support will be removed from the kernel. Dates for these events have been added to the upstream kernel. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

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.
