Linus Torvalds d9b9c89304 Lots of exciting things this time!
- support for rbd object-map and fast-diff features (myself).  This
   will speed up reads, discards and things like snap diffs on sparse
   images.
 
 - ceph.snap.btime vxattr to expose snapshot creation time (David
   Disseldorp).  This will be used to integrate with "Restore Previous
   Versions" feature added in Windows 7 for folks who reexport ceph
   through SMB.
 
 - security xattrs for ceph (Zheng Yan).  Only selinux is supported
   for now due to the limitations of ->dentry_init_security().
 
 - support for MSG_ADDR2, FS_BTIME and FS_CHANGE_ATTR features (Jeff
   Layton).  This is actually a single feature bit which was missing
   because of the filesystem pieces.  With this in, the kernel client
   will finally be reported as "luminous" by "ceph features" -- it is
   still being reported as "jewel" even though all required Luminous
   features were implemented in 4.13.
 
 - stop NULL-terminating ceph vxattrs (Jeff Layton).  The convention
   with xattrs is to not terminate and this was causing inconsistencies
   with ceph-fuse.
 
 - change filesystem time granularity from 1 us to 1 ns, again fixing
   an inconsistency with ceph-fuse (Luis Henriques).
 
 On top of this there are some additional dentry name handling and cap
 flushing fixes from Zheng.  Finally, Jeff is formally taking over for
 Zheng as the filesystem maintainer.

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.
