[ Upstream commit d92915c35bfaf763d78bf1d5ac7f183420e3bd99 ] Inserting or deleting a record in a btree may require splitting several of its nodes. If we hit ENOSPC halfway through, the new nodes will be left orphaned and their records will be lost. This could mean lost inodes, extents or xattrs. Henceforth, check the available disk space before making any changes. This still leaves the potential problem of corruption on ENOMEM. The patch can be tested with xfstests generic/027.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
