The function used to dump sectors containing protection information errors was useful during initial development over a decade ago. However, dump_sector() substantially slows down the system during testing due to writing an entire sector's worth of data to syslog on every error. We now log plenty of information about the nature of detected protection information errors throughout the stack. Dumping the entire contents of an offending sector is no longer needed.

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.
