In this round, we've added new features such as zone capacity for ZNS and a new GC policy, ATGC, along with in-memory segment management. In addition, we could improve the decompression speed significantly by changing virtual mapping method. Even though we've fixed lots of small bugs in compression support, I feel that it becomes more stable so that I could give it a try in production. Enhancement: - suport zone capacity in NVMe Zoned Namespace devices - introduce in-memory current segment management - add standart casefolding support - support age threshold based garbage collection - improve decompression speed by changing virtual mapping method Bug fix: - fix condition checks in some ioctl() such as compression, move_range, etc - fix 32/64bits support in data structures - fix memory allocation in zstd decompress - add some boundary checks to avoid kernel panic on corrupted image - fix disallowing compression for non-empty file - fix slab leakage of compressed block writes In addition, it includes code refactoring for better readability and minor bug fixes for compression and zoned device support. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEE00UqedjCtOrGVvQiQBSofoJIUNIFAl+I0nQACgkQQBSofoJI UNIJdw//Rj0YapYXSu1nlOQppzSAkCiL6wxrrG2qkisRE7uXSYGZfWBqrMT6Asnf i0f25i6ywZOZ00dgN/klZRBh4YYSgJqYx9BPkTxZsQZ/S/EmZJPpr8m4VUB69LKL VijwUdgcW9vNDJ2/DkDQDVBd/ZqRxXnltffWtP4pS96Gj089/dE2q8KXqQrt3LM1 lLQjDfHj+0AyWRzKpErTO0W9DOgO7wmmelS0h6m2RYttkbb328JEZezg5bjWNNlk eTXxuAFFy8Ap9DngkC/sqvY2NRTv1YgOPfrT8XWwdDIiFTZ+LoYdFI5Ap/UW7QwG iz7B/0wPj3+9ncl536LRbFPiLisbYrArYGmZKF6t8w1cP6mTVlileMT4Q6s9+qhn GJS88tTBVlR9vbzDu2brjI6qRQVTBdsohIGoA1g6lz0ogbphhmTzujPbFQ6GTSBi 3sKKp59urkBpVH3TVJU1oshLjIEG2yToMgYwZH9DU7zlzJS6XpetJrzReqItEThc VNixg2DxdIFQ+nrMt+LtWaOHs5qzxIIPksguGEhqSkLL5lI75n2MZxrhKXmUsaZa qItJE0ndJFfi6vggIkJID+a0bpTss7+AxF1AmSZDafMLkZy8j14DNQAnmBUYRX0J 5QExZ+LyyaKjWQ/k9SsSzV1Y3dbguDyB+gkeMhr/6XEr9DSwZc8= =exgv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'f2fs-for-5.10-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim: "In this round, we've added new features such as zone capacity for ZNS and a new GC policy, ATGC, along with in-memory segment management.

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.
