Pull btrfs update from Chris Mason: "The biggest feature in the pull is the new (and still experimental) raid56 code that David Woodhouse started long ago. I'm still working on the parity logging setup that will avoid inconsistent parity after a crash, so this is only for testing right now. But, I'd really like to get it out to a broader audience to hammer out any performance issues or other problems. scrub does not yet correct errors on raid5/6 either. Josef has another pass at fsync performance. The big change here is to combine waiting for metadata with waiting for data, which is a big latency win. It is also step one toward using atomics from the hardware during a commit. Mark Fasheh has a new way to use btrfs send/receive to send only the metadata changes. SUSE is using this to make snapper more efficient at finding changes between snapshosts. Snapshot-aware defrag is also included. Otherwise we have a large number of fixes and cleanups. Eric Sandeen wins the award for removing the most lines, and I'm hoping we steal this idea from XFS over and over again." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs: (118 commits) btrfs: fixup/remove module.h usage as required Btrfs: delete inline extents when we find them during logging btrfs: try harder to allocate raid56 stripe cache Btrfs: cleanup to make the function btrfs_delalloc_reserve_metadata more logic Btrfs: don't call btrfs_qgroup_free if just btrfs_qgroup_reserve fails Btrfs: remove reduplicate check about root in the function btrfs_clean_quota_tree Btrfs: return ENOMEM rather than use BUG_ON when btrfs_alloc_path fails Btrfs: fix missing deleted items in btrfs_clean_quota_tree btrfs: use only inline_pages from extent buffer Btrfs: fix wrong reserved space when deleting a snapshot/subvolume Btrfs: fix wrong reserved space in qgroup during snap/subv creation Btrfs: remove unnecessary dget_parent/dput when creating the pending snapshot btrfs: remove a printk from scan_one_device Btrfs: fix NULL pointer after aborting a transaction Btrfs: fix memory leak of log roots Btrfs: copy everything if we've created an inline extent btrfs: cleanup for open-coded alignment Btrfs: do not change inode flags in rename Btrfs: use reserved space for creating a snapshot clear chunk_alloc flag on retryable failure ...

Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
|
|
support for multiple devices and many more features.
|
|
|
|
Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
|
|
FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in
|
|
testing Btrfs with non-critical data.
|
|
|
|
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
|
|
module will be called btrfs.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.

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

groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme.

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
