Merge tag 'for-6.1-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux
Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"There's a bunch of performance improvements, most notably the FIEMAP
speedup, the new block group tree to speed up mount on large
filesystems, more io_uring integration, some sysfs exports and the
usual fixes and core updates.
Summary:
Performance:
- outstanding FIEMAP speed improvement
- algorithmic change how extents are enumerated leads to orders of
magnitude speed boost (uncached and cached)
- extent sharing check speedup (2.2x uncached, 3x cached)
- add more cancellation points, allowing to interrupt seeking in
files with large number of extents
- more efficient hole and data seeking (4x uncached, 1.3x cached)
- sample results:
256M, 32K extents: 4s -> 29ms (~150x)
512M, 64K extents: 30s -> 59ms (~550x)
1G, 128K extents: 225s -> 120ms (~1800x)
- improved inode logging, especially for directories (on dbench
workload throughput +25%, max latency -21%)
- improved buffered IO, remove redundant extent state tracking,
lowering memory consumption and avoiding rb tree traversal
- add sysfs tunable to let qgroup temporarily skip exact accounting
when deleting snapshot, leading to a speedup but requiring a rescan
after that, will be used by snapper
- support io_uring and buffered writes, until now it was just for
direct IO, with the no-wait semantics implemented in the buffered
write path it now works and leads to speed improvement in IOPS
(2x), throughput (2.2x), latency (depends, 2x to 150x)
- small performance improvements when dropping and searching for
extent maps as well as when flushing delalloc in COW mode
(throughput +5MB/s)
User visible changes:
- new incompatible feature block-group-tree adding a dedicated tree
for tracking block groups, this allows a much faster load during
mount and avoids seeking unlike when it's scattered in the extent
tree items
- this reduces mount time for many-terabyte sized filesystems
- conversion tool will be provided so existing filesystem can also
be updated in place
- to reduce test matrix and feature combinations requires no-holes
and free-space-tree (mkfs defaults since 5.15)
- improved reporting of super block corruption detected by scrub
- scrub also tries to repair super block and does not wait until next
commit
- discard stats and tunables are exported in sysfs
(/sys/fs/btrfs/FSID/discard)
- qgroup status is exported in sysfs
(/sys/sys/fs/btrfs/FSID/qgroups/)
- verify that super block was not modified when thawing filesystem
Fixes:
- FIEMAP fixes
- fix extent sharing status, does not depend on the cached status
where merged
- flush delalloc so compressed extents are reported correctly
- fix alignment of VMA for memory mapped files on THP
- send: fix failures when processing inodes with no links (orphan
files and directories)
- fix race between quota enable and quota rescan ioctl
- handle more corner cases for read-only compat feature verification
- fix missed extent on fsync after dropping extent maps
Core:
- lockdep annotations to validate various transactions states and
state transitions
- preliminary support for fs-verity in send
- more effective memory use in scrub for subpage where sector is
smaller than page
- block group caching progress logic has been removed, load is now
synchronous
- simplify end IO callbacks and bio handling, use chained bios
instead of own tracking
- add no-wait semantics to several functions (tree search, nocow,
flushing, buffered write
- cleanups and refactoring
MM changes:
- export balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited_flags"

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.
