Linus Torvalds fbc246a12a f2fs-for-5.4-rc1
In this round, we introduced casefolding support in f2fs, and fixed various bugs
 in individual features such as IO alignment, checkpoint=disable, quota, and
 swapfile.
 
 Enhancement:
  - support casefolding w/ enhancement in ext4
  - support fiemap for directory
  - support FS_IO_GET|SET_FSLABEL
 
 Bug fix:
  - fix IO stuck during checkpoint=disable
  - avoid infinite GC loop
  - fix panic/overflow related to IO alignment feature
  - fix livelock in swap file
  - fix discard command leak
  - disallow dio for atomic_write

README

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.
