SRCU is not necessary to be compiled by default in all cases. For tinification efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable. The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making use of SRCU are selected. If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all. text data bss dec hex filename 2007 0 0 2007 7d7 kernel/rcu/srcu.o Size of arch/powerpc/boot/zImage changes from text data bss dec hex filename 831552 64180 23944 919676 e087c arch/powerpc/boot/zImage : before 829504 64180 23952 917636 e0084 arch/powerpc/boot/zImage : after so the savings are about ~2000 bytes.

Btrfs is a general purpose copy-on-write filesystem with extents,
|
|
writable snapshotting, support for multiple devices and many more
|
|
features focused on fault tolerance, repair and easy administration.
|
|
|
|
The filesystem disk format is no longer unstable, and it's not
|
|
expected to change unless there are strong reasons to do so. If there
|
|
is a format change, file systems with a unchanged format will
|
|
continue to be mountable and usable by newer kernels.
|
|
|
|
For more information, please see the web pages at
|
|
http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org.
|
|
|
|
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
|
|
module will be called btrfs.

POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and

To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for

depends on BTRFS_FS

help
|
|
Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
|
|
writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
|
|
state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
|
|
after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
|
|
in a consistent state.
|
|
|
|
If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
|
|
the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
|
|
plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
|
|
functionality is not intended for normal use.
|
|

In most cases, unless you are a btrfs developer who needs
|
|
to verify the integrity of (super)-block write requests

during the run of a regression test, say N

This will run some basic sanity tests on the free space cache

code to make sure it is acting as it should. These are mostly

regression tests and are only really interesting to btrfs

developers.

Enable run-time debugging support for the btrfs filesystem. This may
