There is a new mount option, prefetch_block_bitmaps which will pull in the block bitmaps and set up the in-memory buddy bitmaps when the file system is initially mounted. Beyond that, a lot of bug fixes and cleanups. In particular, a number of changes to make ext4 more robust in the face of write errors or file system corruptions. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCAAdFiEEK2m5VNv+CHkogTfJ8vlZVpUNgaMFAl8/Q9YACgkQ8vlZVpUN gaPz+wgAkiWwpge0pfcukABW9FcHK9R82IPggA/NnFu0I+3trpqVQP8mYWqg+1l7 X0W6B6GHMcITGdwxVDNGHHv0WabXCqFPT0ENwW1cnl9UL6I91Ev2NjmG9HP6hVZa g3+NyXJwiOP38xsxpPJGPoYFw2wZyv8/e41MMnsE6goYjMmB04sHvXCUQkbN41Fn 3CMdsiueYZDAKflvAlL50Jy7Imz5tq9oy81/z+amqvWo4T0U8zRwQuf25nBAhr25 1WdT4CbCNGO2Qwyu9X+t/KGNVIQhCctkx/yz71l3p2piEGkw/XE4VJNrkmWb0zN7 k9F5uGOZlAlQEzx+5PN//Qtz1Db0QQ== =E6vv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'ext4_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4 Pull ext4 updates from Ted Ts'o: "Improvements to ext4's block allocator performance for very large file systems, especially when the file system or files which are highly fragmented.

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.
