Attach the actual range of bytes written to plus the responsible uid/gid to each dirty page. This information must be sent to the server when the page is written out. Now write_begin, page_mkwrite, and invalidatepage keep up with this information. There are several conditions where they must write out the page immediately to store the new range. Two non-contiguous ranges cannot be stored on a single page. Signed-off-by: Martin Brandenburg <martin@omnibond.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Marshall <hubcap@omnibond.com>
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.
