Jingbo Xu 3f33992017 erofs: update on-disk format for xattr name filter
The xattr name bloom filter feature is going to be introduced to speed
up the negative xattr lookup, e.g. system.posix_acl_[access|default]
lookup when running "ls -lR" workload.

There are some commonly used extended attributes (n) and the total
number of these is approximately 30.

	trusted.overlay.opaque
	trusted.overlay.redirect
	trusted.overlay.origin
	trusted.overlay.impure
	trusted.overlay.nlink
	trusted.overlay.upper
	trusted.overlay.metacopy
	trusted.overlay.protattr
	user.overlay.opaque
	user.overlay.redirect
	user.overlay.origin
	user.overlay.impure
	user.overlay.nlink
	user.overlay.upper
	user.overlay.metacopy
	user.overlay.protattr
	security.evm
	security.ima
	security.selinux
	security.SMACK64
	security.SMACK64IPIN
	security.SMACK64IPOUT
	security.SMACK64EXEC
	security.SMACK64TRANSMUTE
	security.SMACK64MMAP
	security.apparmor
	security.capability
	system.posix_acl_access
	system.posix_acl_default
	user.mime_type

Given the number of bits of the bloom filter (m) is 32, the optimal
value for the number of the hash functions (k) is 1 (ln2 * m/n = 0.74).

The single hash function is implemented as:

	xxh32(name, strlen(name), EROFS_XATTR_FILTER_SEED + index)

where `index` represents the index of corresponding predefined short name
prefix, while `name` represents the name string after stripping the above
predefined name prefix.

The constant magic number EROFS_XATTR_FILTER_SEED, i.e. 0x25BBE08F, is
used to give a better spread when mapping these 30 extended attributes
into 32-bit bloom filter as:

	bit  0: security.ima
	bit  1:
	bit  2: trusted.overlay.nlink
	bit  3:
	bit  4: user.overlay.nlink
	bit  5: trusted.overlay.upper
	bit  6: user.overlay.origin
	bit  7: trusted.overlay.protattr
	bit  8: security.apparmor
	bit  9: user.overlay.protattr
	bit 10: user.overlay.opaque
	bit 11: security.selinux
	bit 12: security.SMACK64TRANSMUTE
	bit 13: security.SMACK64
	bit 14: security.SMACK64MMAP
	bit 15: user.overlay.impure
	bit 16: security.SMACK64IPIN
	bit 17: trusted.overlay.redirect
	bit 18: trusted.overlay.origin
	bit 19: security.SMACK64IPOUT
	bit 20: trusted.overlay.opaque
	bit 21: system.posix_acl_default
	bit 22:
	bit 23: user.mime_type
	bit 24: trusted.overlay.impure
	bit 25: security.SMACK64EXEC
	bit 26: user.overlay.redirect
	bit 27: user.overlay.upper
	bit 28: security.evm
	bit 29: security.capability
	bit 30: system.posix_acl_access
	bit 31: trusted.overlay.metacopy, user.overlay.metacopy

h_name_filter is introduced to the on-disk per-inode xattr header to
place the corresponding xattr name filter, where bit value 1 indicates
non-existence for compatibility.

This feature is indicated by EROFS_FEATURE_COMPAT_XATTR_FILTER
compatible feature bit.

Reserve one byte in on-disk superblock as the on-disk format for xattr
name filter may change in the future.  With this flag we don't need
bothering these compatible bits again at that time.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
