Provide implementation of the netfslib hooks that will be used by netfslib to ask cifs to set up and perform operations. Of particular note are (*) cifs_clamp_length() - This is used to negotiate the size of the next subrequest in a read request, taking into account the credit available and the rsize. The credits are attached to the subrequest. (*) cifs_req_issue_read() - This is used to issue a subrequest that has been set up and clamped. (*) cifs_prepare_write() - This prepares to fill a subrequest by picking a channel, reopening the file and requesting credits so that we can set the maximum size of the subrequest and also sets the maximum number of segments if we're doing RDMA. (*) cifs_issue_write() - This releases any unneeded credits and issues an asynchronous data write for the contiguous slice of file covered by the subrequest. This should possibly be folded in to all ->async_writev() ops and that called directly. (*) cifs_begin_writeback() - This gets the cached writable handle through which we do writeback (this does not affect writethrough, unbuffered or direct writes). At this point, cifs is not wired up to actually *use* netfslib; that will be done in a subsequent patch.

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.
