2018-09-20docs: fix some broken documentation referencesMauro Carvalho Chehab1-1/+1
Some documentation files received recent changes and are pointing to wrong places.

2018-01-01fs/*/Kconfig: drop links to 404-compliant http://acl.bestbits.atAdam Borowski1-2/+0
This link is replicated in most filesystems' config stanzas. Referring to an archived version of that site is pointless as it mostly deals with patches; user documentation is available elsewhere.

2015-07-23fs: Remove ext3 filesystem driverJan Kara1-2/+2
The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3 filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code. Acked-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
2015-02-16ext2: get rid of most mentions of XIP in ext2Matthew Wilcox1-2/+3
To help people transition, accept the 'xip' mount option (and report it in /proc/mounts), but print a message encouraging people to switch over to the 'dax' option.

2009-06-18Doc fix: ext2 can only have 32,000 subdirs, not 32,768Michael Shields1-1/+1
ext2.txt says that dirs can have 32,768 subdirs, but the actual value of EXT2_LINK_MAX is 32000. ext3 is the same, but the doc does not mention it. One of ext4's features is to "fix 32000 subdirectory limit". Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+383
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
