Pull vfs icache updates from Al Viro: - NFS mkdir/open_by_handle race fix - analogous solution for FUSE, replacing the one currently in mainline - new primitive to be used when discarding halfway set up inodes on failed object creation; gives sane warranties re icache lookups not returning such doomed by still not freed inodes. A bunch of filesystems switched to that animal. - Miklos' fix for last cycle regression in iget5_locked(); -stable will need a slightly different variant, unfortunately. - misc bits and pieces around things icache-related (in adfs and jfs). * 'work.mkdir' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: jfs: don't bother with make_bad_inode() in ialloc() adfs: don't put inodes into icache new helper: inode_fake_hash() vfs: don't evict uninitialized inode jfs: switch to discard_new_inode() ext2: make sure that partially set up inodes won't be returned by ext2_iget() udf: switch to discard_new_inode() ufs: switch to discard_new_inode() btrfs: switch to discard_new_inode() new primitive: discard_new_inode() kill d_instantiate_no_diralias() nfs_instantiate(): prevent multiple aliases for directory inode
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
