Hey Linus, /* Summary */ This contains some work to simplify the handling of casefolded names: - Simplify the handling of casefolded names in f2fs and ext4 by keeping the names as a qstr to avoiding unnecessary conversions. - Introduce a new generic_ci_match() libfs case-insensitive lookup helper and use it in both f2fs and ext4 allowing to remove the filesystem specific implementations. - Remove a bunch of ifdefs by making the unicode built checks part of the code flow. /* Testing */ clang: Debian clang version 16.0.6 (26) gcc: (Debian 13.2.0-24) All patches are based on v6.10-rc1 and have been sitting in linux-next. No build failures or warnings were observed. /* Conflicts */ No known conflicts. The following changes since commit 1613e604df0cd359cf2a7fbd9be7a0bcfacfabd0: Linux 6.10-rc1 (2024-05-26 15:20:12 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs tags/vfs-6.11.casefold for you to fetch changes up to 28add38d545f445f01eec844b85eed4593c31733: f2fs: Move CONFIG_UNICODE defguards into the code flow (2024-06-07 17:00:45 +0200) Please consider pulling these changes from the signed vfs-6.11.casefold tag.
