Create some new routines to exchange the contents of a temporary file created to stage a repair with another ondisk file. This will be used by the realtime summary repair function to commit atomically the new rtsummary data, which will be staged in the tempfile. The rest of XFS coordinates access to the realtime metadata inodes solely through the ILOCK. For repair to hold its exclusive access to the realtime summary file, it has to allocate a single large transaction and roll it repeatedly throughout the repair while holding the ILOCK. In turn, this means that for now there's only a partial file mapping exchange implementation for the temporary file because we can only work within an existing transaction. For now, the only tempswap functions needed here are to estimate the resource requirements of the exchange, reserve more space/quota to an existing transaction, and kick off the actual exchange. The rest will be added in a later patch in preparation for repairing xattrs and directories. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
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 reStructuredText 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.
