Linus Torvalds d6edff78fe f2fs-for-4.20-rc1
In this round, we've added 1) superblock checksum feature, 2) implemented new
 mount option which we can disable/enable checkpoint to provide atomic updates of
 entire filesystem, 3) refactored quota operations to enhance its consistency
 along with checkpoint, 4) fixed subtle IO hang conditions and roll-forward
 recovery flow to resurrect any fsync'ed inode metadata.
 
 Enhancement:
  - add checksum to keep superblock contents more safe
  - add checkpoint=disable/enable to support A/B update of entire filesystem
  - use plug for readahead IO in readdir
  - add more IO counts to avoid block layer hacks
 
 Bug fix:
  - prevent data corruption issue for hardware encryption
  - fix IO hang issues when GC is heavily triggered
  - add missing up_read in __write_node_page
  - recover inode metadata during roll-forward recovery flow
  - fix null pointer dereference issue in wrongly configured discard map
 
 There are some more sanity checks and minor bug fixes as well.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
