Linus Torvalds 720261cfc7 bcachefs changes for 6.11-rc1 (version 2)
Additional fixes on top of the original 6.11 pull request:
 - undefined behaviour fixes, originally noted as breaking userspace LTO
   builds
 - fix a spurious warning in fsck_err, reported by Marcin
 - fix an integer overflow on trans->nr_updates, also reported by Marcin;
   this broke during deletion of highly fragmented indirect extents
 - Add comments for lockdep functions
 
 ======
 
 - Metadata version 1.8: Stripe sectors accounting, BCH_DATA_unstriped
 
 This splits out the accounting of dirty sectors and stripe sectors in
 alloc keys; this lets us see stripe buckets that still have unstriped
 data in them.
 
 This is needed for ensuring that erasure coding is working correctly, as
 well as completing stripe creation after a crash.
 
 - Metadata version 1.9: Disk accounting rewrite
 
 The previous disk accounting scheme relied heavily on percpu counters
 that were also sharded by outstanding journal buffer; it was fast but
 not extensible or scalable, and meant that all accounting counters were
 recorded in every journal entry.
 
 The new disk accounting scheme stores accounting as normal btree keys;
 updates are deltas until they are flushed by the btree write buffer.
 
 This means we have no practical limit on the number of counters, and a
 new tagged union format that's easy to extend.
 
 We now have counters for compression type/ratio, per-snapshot-id usage,
 per-btree-id usage, and pending rebalance work.
 
 - Self healing on read IO/checksum error
 
 data is now automatically rewritten if we get a read error and then a
 successful retry
 
 - Mount API conversion (thanks to Thomas Bertschinger)
 
 - Better lockdep coverage
 
 Previously, btree node locks were tracked individually by lockdep, like
 any other lock. But we may take _many_ btree node locks simultaneously,
 we easily blow through the limit of 48 locks that lockdep can track,
 leading to lockdep turning itself off.
 
 Tracking each btree node lock individually isn't really necessary since
 we have our own cycle detector for deadlock avoidance and centralized
 tracking of btree node locks, so we now have a single lockdep_map in
 btree_trans for "any btree nodes are locked".
 
 - some more small incremental work towards online check_allocations
 
 - lots more debugging improvements, fixes

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 reStructuredText 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.
