The following changes since commit e8d018dd0257f744ca50a729e3d042cf2ec9da65: Linux 6.3-rc3 (2023-03-19 13:27:55 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git tags/ext4_for_linus for you to fetch changes up to 519fe1bae7e20fc4e7f179d50b6102b49980e85d: ext4: Add a uapi header for ext4 userspace APIs (2023-04-19 23:39:42 -0400) ------- Please note that after merging the mm and ext4 trees you will need to apply the patch found here[1]. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230419120923.3152939-1-willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx This is due to a patch in the mm tree, "mm: return an ERR_PTR from __filemap_get_folio" changing that function to returning an ERR_PTR instead of returning NULL on an error. Because we have a lot of folio changes flowing in various trees, this patch can't be applied to either the ext4 or mm trees, but only *after* the two trees are merged together. There are also some minor merge conflicts again caused by other folio changes. Commit 5854356ab539 from linux-next's next-20230424 has the merge conflicts resolved as well as the patch in [1]. For more details/discussion, please see [2] and the prediction in [3], "I'm sure Linus will love it". :-P [2] https://lore.kernel.org/r/ZD6WNSKCjGGEFLB3@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [3] https://lore.kernel.org/r/ZD8F3qV6eLHZpagX@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ---------------------------------------------------------------- There are a number of major cleanups in ext4 this cycle: * The data=journal writepath has been significantly cleaned up and simplified, and reduces a large number of data=journal special cases by Jan Kara. * Ojaswin Muhoo has replaced linked list used to track extents that have been used for inode preallocation with a red-black tree in the multi-block allocator. This improves performance for workloads which do a large number of random allocating writes. * Thanks to Kemeng Shi for a lot of cleanup and bug fixes in the multi-block allocator. * Matthew wilcox has converted the code paths for reading and writing ext4 pages to use folios. * Jason Yan has continued to factor out ext4_fill_super() into smaller functions for improve ease of maintenance and comprehension. * Josh Triplett has created an uapi header for ext4 userspace API's. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Jan Kara (21): ext4: Update stale comment about
