+NTFS Overview
+=============
+
+To mount an NTFS 1.2/3.x (Windows NT4/2000/XP) volume, use the filesystem
+type 'ntfs'. The driver currently works only in read-only mode, with no
+fault-tolerance supported.
+
+For ftdisk support, limited success was reported with volume sets on top of
+the md driver, although mirror and stripe sets should work as well - if the
+md driver can be talked into using the same layout as Windows NT. However,
+using the md driver will fail if any of your NTFS partitions have an odd
+number of sectors.
+
+Supported mount options
+=======================
+
+nls=name		Character set to use when returning file names.
+			Unlike VFAT, NTFS suppresses names that contain
+			unconvertible characters. Note that most character
+			sets contain insufficient characters to represent all
+			possible Unicode characters that can exist on NTFS. To
+			be sure you are not missing any files, you are advised
+			to use nls=utf8 which is capable of representing all
+			Unicode characters.
+
+uid=
+gid=
+umask=			Provide default owner, group, and access mode mask.
+			These options work as documented in mount(8). By
+			default, the files are owned by root and are not
+			readable by anyone else.
+
+fmask=
+dmask=			Instead of specifying umask which applies both to
+			files and directories, fmask applies only to files and
+			dmask only to directories.
+
+sloppy=<BOOL>		If sloppy is specified, ignore unknown mount options.
+			Otherwise the default behaviour is to abort mount if
+			any unknown options are found.
+
+errors=opt		What to do when critical file system errors are found.
+			Following values can be used for "opt":
+			  continue: DEFAULT, try to clean-up as much as
+				    possible, e.g. marking a corrupt inode as
+				    bad so it is no longer accessed.
+			  recover:  At present only supported is recovery of
+				    the boot sector from the backup copy. If a
+				    read-only mount, the recovery is done in
+				    memory only and not written to disk.
+
+show_inodes=opt		Allows choice of which types of inode names readdir()
+			returns, i.e. this affects what "ls" shows. Following
+			values can be used for "opt":
+			   system: show system files
+			   win32:  long file names (includes POSIX) [DEFAULT]
+			   long:   same as win32
+			   dos:    short file names only (excludes POSIX)
+			   short:  same as dos
+			   posix:  same as both win32 and dos
+			   all:    all file names
+			Note that the options are additive, i.e. specifying:
+			   show_inodes=system,show_inodes=win32,show_inodes=dos
+			is the same as specifying:
+			   show_inodes=all
+			Note that the "posix" and "all" options will show all
+			directory names, BUT the link count on each directory
+			inode entry is set to 1, due to Linux not supporting
+			directory hard links. This may well confuse some
+			userspace applications, since the directory names will
+			have the same inode numbers. Thus it is NOT advisable
+			to use the "posix" and "all" options. We provide them
+			only for completeness sake.
+			Further, note that the "system" option will not show
+			"$MFT" due to bugs/mis-features in glibc. Even though
+			it does not show, you can specifically "ls" it:
+				ls -l \$MFT
+			And of course you can stat it, too.
+			Further, note that irrespective of what show_inodes
+			option(s) you use, all files are accessible when you
+			specify the correct name, even though they may not be
+			shown in a normal "ls", i.e. you can always access the
+			system files and both the short and long file names of
+			files and directories.
+			Finally, note that win32 and dos file names are not
+			case sensitive and can be accessed using any
+			combination of lower and upper case, while POSIX file
+			names are case sensitive and they can only be accessed
+			given the correct case.
+
+mft_zone_multiplier=	Set the MFT zone multiplier for the volume (this
+			setting is not persistent across mounts and can be
+			changed from mount to mount but cannot be changed on
+			remount). Values of 1 to 4 are allowed, 1 being the
+			default. The MFT zone multiplier determines how much
+			space is reserved for the MFT on the volume. If all
+			other space is used up, then the MFT zone will be
+			shrunk dynamically, so this has no impact on the
+			amount of free space. However, it can have an impact
+			on performance by affecting fragmentation of the MFT.
+			In general use the default. If you have a lot of small
+			files then use a higher value. The values have the
+			following meaning:
+			      Value	     MFT zone size (% of volume size)
+				1		12.5%
+				2		25%
+				3		37.5%
+				4		50%
+			Note this option is irrelevant for read-only mounts.

+ToDo:
+	- Audit for allocated_size vs initialized_size vs data_size (i.e.
+	  i_size) in whole driver.
+	  Need to enforce limits and zeroes need to be written when overflow is
+	  detected. We CANNOT use block_read_full_page() at all anywhere! This
+	  is because initialized_size can lie within a block and ntfs_get_block
+	  has no way to tell block_read_full_page about it. So our readpage
+	  functions need to clone block_read_full_page and modify it to cope
+	  with the significance of the different attribute sizes.
+	  Still need to go through:
+		aops.c, attrib.c, compress.c, dir.c, mft.c
+	- Find and fix bugs.
+	- W.r.t. s_maxbytes still need to be careful on reading/truncating as
+	  there are dragons lurking in the details, e.g. read_inode() currently
+	  does no checks for file size wrt s_maxbytes. So what happens when a
+	  user open()s a file with i_size > s_maxbytes? Should read_inode()
+	  truncate the visible i_size? Will the user just get -E2BIG (or
+	  whatever) on open()? Or will (s)he be able to open() but lseek() and
+	  read() will fail when s_maxbytes is reached? -> Investigate this!
+	- Perhaps don't bother getting the run list in ntfs_read_inode() at
+	  all. But we do have to find the data/index root attribute to get the
+	  inode size so we might want to decompress the mapping pairs of the
+	  first extent in there anyway. -> Ponder this. Directory listings
+	  would have significant speedups but the first access to each file/dir
+	  would have a small speed penalty.
+	- Implement/allow non-resident index bitmaps in ntfs_readdir().
+	- vcn_to_lcn() should somehow return the correct pointer within the
+	  ->run_list so we can get at the lcns for the following vcns, this is
+	  strictly a speed optimization. Obviously need to keep the ->run_list
+	  locked or RACE. load_attribute_list() which we call without any locks
+	  held already performs such an optimization but that is no longer
+	  possible when using the spinlock on the run lists as this would sleep
+	  in between. Either need different type of optimization as above or
+	  need to change the read/write spinlock to a read/write semaphore.

+tng-0.0.8 - 08/03/2002 - BitKeeper ChangeSet 1.457
+
+	- Replace bdevname(sb->s_dev) with sb->s_id.
+	- Remove now superfluous new-line characters in all callers of
+	  ntfs_debug().
+	- Apply kludge in ntfs_read_inode(), setting i_nlink to 1 for
+	  directories. Without this the "find" utility gets very upset which is
+	  fair enough as Linux/Unix do not support directory hard links.
+	- Further run list merging work. (Richard Russon)
+	- Backwards compatibility for gcc-2.95. (Richard Russon)
+	- Update to kernel 2.5.5-pre1 and rediff the now tiny patch.
+	- Convert to new file system declaration using ->ntfs_get_sb() and
+	  replacing ntfs_read_super() with ntfs_fill_super().
+	- Set s_maxbytes to MAX_LFS_FILESIZE to avoid page cache page index
+	  overflow on 32-bit architectures.
+	- Cleanup upcase loading code to use ntfs_(un)map_page().
+	- Disable/reenable preemtion in critical sections of compession engine.
+	- Replace device size determination in ntfs_fill_super() with
+	  sb->s_bdev->bd_inode->i_size (in bytes) and remove now superfluous
+	  function super.c::get_nr_blocks().
+	- Implement a mount time option (show_inodes) allowing choice of which
+	  types of inode names readdir() returns and modify ntfs_filldir()
+	  accordingly. There are several parameters to show_inodes:
+		system:	system files
+	  	win32:	long file names (including POSIX file names) [DEFAULT]
+		long:	same as win32
+	  	dos:	short file names only (excluding POSIX file names)
+		short:	same as dos
+		posix:	same as both win32 and dos
+	  	all:	all file names
+	  Note that the options are additive, i.e. specifying:
+		-o show_inodes=system,show_inodes=win32,show_inodes=dos
+	  is the same as specifying:
+		-o show_inodes=all
+	  Note that the "posix" and "all" options will show all directory
+	  names, BUT the link count on each directory inode entry is set to 1,
+	  due to Linux not supporting directory hard links. This may well
+	  confuse some userspace applications, since the directory names will
+	  have the same inode numbers. Thus it is NOT advisable to use the
+	  "posix" or "all" options. We provide them only for completeness sake.
+	- Add copies of allocated_size, initialized_size, and compressed_size to
+	  the ntfs inode structure and set them up in
+	  inode.c::ntfs_read_inode(). These reflect the unnamed data attribute
+	  for files and the index allocation attribute for directories.
+	- Add copies of allocated_size and initialized_size to ntfs inode for
+	  $BITMAP attribute of large directories and set them up in
+	  inode.c::ntfs_read_inode().
+	- Add copies of allocated_size and initialized_size to ntfs volume for
+	  $BITMAP attribute of $MFT and set them up in
+	  super.c::load_system_files().
+	- Parse deprecated ntfs driver options (iocharset, show_sys_files,
+	  posix, and utf8) and tell user what the new options to use are. Note
+	  we still do support them but they will be removed with kernel 2.7.x.
+	- Change all occurences of integer long long printf formatting to hex
+	  as printk() will not support long long integer format if/when the
+	  div64 patch goes into the kernel.
+	- Make slab caches have stable names and change the names to what they
+	  were intended to be. These changes are required/made possible by the
+	  new slab cache name handling which removes the length limitation by
+	  requiring the caller of kmem_cache_create() to supply a stable name
+	  which is then referenced but not copied.
+	- Rename run_list structure to run_list_element and create a new
+	  run_list structure containing a pointer to a run_list_element
+	  structure and a read/write spinlock. Adapt all usesrs of run lists
+	  to new scheme and take and release the lock as needed. This fixes a
+	  nasty race as the run_list changes even when inodes are locked for
+	  reading and even when the inode isn't locked at all, so we really
+	  needed the serialization.
+	- Cleanup read_inode() removing all code checking for lowest_vcn != 0.
+	  This can never happen due to the nature of lookup_attr() and how we
+	  support attribute lists. If it did happen it would imply the inode
+	  being corrupt.
+	- Check for lowest_vcn != 0 in ntfs_read_inode() and mark the inode as
+	  bad if found.
+	- Update to 2.5.6-pre2 changes in struct address_space.
+	- Import Sourceforge CVS repository into BitKeeper repository:
+		http://linux-ntfs.bkbits.net/ntfs-tng-2.5
+	- Update fs/Makefile, fs/Config.help, fs/Config.in, and
+	  Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt for NTFS TNG.
+	- Create kernel configuration option controlling whether debugging
+	  is enabled or not.
+	- Add the required export of end_buffer_io_sync() from the patches
+	  directory to the kernel code.
+	- Update inode.c::ntfs_show_options() with show_inodes mount option.
+	- Update errors mount option.
+
+tng-0.0.7 - 13/02/2002 - The driver is now feature complete for read-only!
+
+	- Cleanup mft.c and it's debug/error output in particular. Fix a minor
+	  bug in mapping of extent inodes. Update all the comments to fit all
+	  the recent code changes.
+	- Modify vcn_to_lcn() to cope with entirely unmapped run lists.
+	- Cleanups in compress.c, mostly comments and folding help.
+	- Implement attrib.c::map_run_list() as a generic helper.
+	- Make compress.c::ntfs_file_read_compressed_block() use map_run_list()
+	  thus making code shorter and enabling attribute list support.
+	- Cleanup incorrect use of [su]64 with %L printf format specifier in
+	  all source files. Type casts to [unsigned] long long added to correct
+	  the mismatches (important for architectures which have long long not
+	  being 64 bits).
+	- Merge async io completion handlers for directory indexes and $MFT
+	  data into one by setting the index_block_size{_bits} of the ntfs
+	  inode for $MFT to the mft_record_size{_bits} of the ntfs_volume.
+	- Cleanup aops.c, update comments.
+	- Make ntfs_file_get_block() use map_run_list() so all files now
+	  support attribute lists.
+	- Make ntfs_dir_readpage() almost verbatim copy of
+	  block_read_full_page() by using ntfs_file_get_block() with only real
+	  difference being the use of our own async io completion handler
+	  rather than the default one, thus reducing the amount of code and
+	  automatically enabling attribute list support for directory indices.
+	- Fix bug in load_attribute_list() - forgot to call brelse in error
+	  code path.
+	- Change parameters to find_attr() and lookup_attr(). We no longer
+	  pass in the upcase table and its length. These can be gotten from
+	  ctx->ntfs_ino->vol->upcase{_len}. Update all callers.
+	- Cleanups in attrib.c. 
+	- Implement merging of run lists, attrib.c::merge_run_lists() and its
+	  helpers. (Richard Russon)
+	- Attribute lists part 2, attribute extents and multi part run lists:
+	  enable proper support for LCN_RL_NOT_MAPPED and automatic mapping of
+	  further run list parts via attrib.c::map_run_list().
+	- Tiny endianness bug fix in decompress_mapping_pairs().
+
+tng-0.0.6 - Encrypted directories, bug fixes, cleanups, debugging enhancements.
+
+	- Enable encrypted directories. (Their index root is marked encrypted
+	  to indicate that new files in that directory should be created
+	  encrypted.)
+	- Fix bug in NInoBmpNonResident() macro. (Cut and paste error.)
+	- Enable $Extend system directory. Most (if not all) extended system
+	  files do not have unnamed data attributes so ntfs_read_inode() had to
+	  special case them but that is ok, as the special casing recovery
+	  happens inside an error code path so there is zero slow down in the
+	  normal fast path. The special casing is done by introducing a new
+	  function inode.c::ntfs_is_extended_system_file() which checks if any
+	  of the hard links in the inode point to $Extend as being their parent
+	  directory and if they do we assume this is an extended system file.
+	- Create a sysctl/proc interface to allow {dis,en}abling of debug output
+	  when compiled with -DDEBUG. Default is debug messages to be disabled.
+	  To enable them, one writes a non-zero value to /proc/sys/fs/ntfs-debug
+	  (if /proc is enabled) or uses sysctl(2) to effect the same (if sysctl
+	  interface is enabled). Inspired by old ntfs driver.
+	- Add debug_msgs insmod/kernel boot parameter to set whether debug
+	  messages are {dis,en}abled. This is useful to enable debug messages
+	  during ntfs initialization and is the only way to activate debugging
+	  when the sysctl interface is not enabled.
+	- Cleanup debug output in various places.
+	- Remove all dollar signs ($) from the source (except comments) to
+	  enable compilation on architectures whose gcc compiler does not
+	  support dollar signs in the names of variables/constants. Attribute
+	  types now start with AT_ instead of $ and $I30 is now just I30.
+	- Cleanup ntfs_lookup() and add consistency check of sequence numbers.
+	- Load complete run list for $MFT/$BITMAP during mount and cleanup
+	  access functions. This means we now cope with $MFT/$BITMAP being
+	  spread accross several mft records.
+	- Disable modification of mft_zone_multiplier on remount. We can always
+	  reenable this later on if we really want to, but we will need to make
+	  sure we readjust the mft_zone size / layout accordingly.
+
+tng-0.0.5 - Modernize for 2.5.x and further in line-ing with Al Viro's comments.
+
+	- Use sb_set_blocksize() instead of set_blocksize() and verify the
+	  return value.
+	- Use sb_bread() instead of bread() throughout.
+	- Add index_vcn_size{_bits} to ntfs_inode structure to store the size
+	  of a directory index block vcn. Apply resulting simplifications in
+	  dir.c everywhere.
+	- Fix a small bug somewhere (but forgot what it was).
+	- Change ntfs_{debug,error,warning} to enable gcc to do type checking
+	  on the printf-format parameter list and fix bugs reported by gcc
+	  as a result. (Richard Russon)
+	- Move inode allocation strategy to Al's new stuff but maintain the
+	  divorce of ntfs_inode from struct inode. To achieve this we have two
+	  separate slab caches, one for big ntfs inodes containing a struct
+	  inode and pure ntfs inodes and at the same time fix some faulty
+	  error code paths in ntfs_read_inode().
+	- Show mount options in proc (inode.c::ntfs_show_options()).
+
+tng-0.0.4 - Big changes, getting in line with Al Viro's comments.
+
+	- Modified (un)map_mft_record functions to be common for read and write
+	  case. To specify which is which, added extra parameter at front of
+	  parameter list. Pass either READ or WRITE to this, each has the
+	  obvious meaning.
+	- General cleanups to allow for easier folding in vi.
+	- attrib.c::decompress_mapping_pairs() now accepts the old run list
+	  argument, and invokes attrib.c::merge_run_lists() to merge the old
+	  and the new run lists.
+	- Removed attrib.c::find_first_attr().
+	- Implemented loading of attribute list and complete run list for $MFT.
+	  This means we now cope with $MFT being spread across several mft
+	  records.
+	- Adapt to 2.5.2-pre9 and the changed create_empty_buffers() syntax.
+	- Adapt major/minor/kdev_t/[bk]devname stuff to new 2.5.x kernels.
+	- Make ntfs_volume be allocated via kmalloc() instead of using a slab
+	  cache. There are too little ntfs_volume structures at any one time
+	  to justify a private slab cache.
+	- Fix bogus kmap() use in async io completion. Now use kmap_atomic().
+	  Use KM_BIO_IRQ on advice from IRC/kernel...
+	- Use ntfs_map_page() in map_mft_record() and create ->readpage method
+	  for reading $MFT (ntfs_mft_readpage). In the process create dedicated
+	  address space operations (ntfs_mft_aops) for $MFT inode mapping. Also
+	  removed the now superfluous exports from the kernel core patch.
+	- Fix a bug where kfree() was used insted of ntfs_free().
+	- Change map_mft_record() to take ntfs_inode as argument instead of
+	  vfs inode. Dito for unmap_mft_record(). Adapt all callers.
+	- Add pointer to ntfs_volume to ntfs_inode.
+	- Add mft record number and sequence number to ntfs_inode. Stop using
+	  i_ino and i_generation for in-driver purposes.
+	- Implement attrib.c::merge_run_lists(). (Richard Russon)
+	- Remove use of proper inodes by extent inodes. Move i_ino and
+	  i_generation to ntfs_inode to do this. Apply simplifications that
+	  result and remove iget_no_wait(), etc.
+	- Pass ntfs_inode everywhere in the driver (used to be struct inode).
+	- Add reference counting in ntfs_inode for the ntfs inode itself and
+	  for the mapped mft record.
+	- Extend mft record mapping so we can (un)map extent mft records (new
+	  functions (un)map_extent_mft_record), and so mappings are reference
+	  counted and don't have to happen twice if already mapped - just ref
+	  count increases.
+	- Add -o iocharset as alias to -o nls for backwards compatibility.
+	- The latest core patch is now tiny. In fact just a single additional
+	  export is necessary over the base kernel.
+
+tng-0.0.3 - Cleanups, enhancements, bug fixes.
+
+	- Work on attrib.c::decompress_mapping_pairs() to detect base extents
+	  and setup the run list appropriately using knowledge provided by the
+	  sizes in the base attribute record.
+	- Balance the get_/put_attr_search_ctx() calls so we don't leak memory
+	  any more.
+	- Introduce ntfs_malloc_nofs() and ntfs_free() to allocate/free a single
+	  page or use vmalloc depending on the amount of memory requested.
+	- Cleanup error output. The __FUNCTION__ "(): " is now added
+	  automatically. Introduced a new header file debug.h to support this
+	  and also moved ntfs_debug() function into it.
+	- Make reading of compressed files more intelligent and especially get
+	  rid of the vmalloc_nofs() from readpage(). This now uses per CPU
+	  buffers (allocated at first mount with cluster size <= 4kiB and
+	  deallocated on last umount with cluster size <= 4kiB), and
+	  asynchronous io for the compressed data using a list of buffer heads.
+	  Er, we use synchronous io as async io only works on whole pages
+	  covered by buffers and not on individual buffer heads...
+	- Bug fix for reading compressed files with sparse compression blocks.
+
+tng-0.0.2 - Now handles larger/fragmented/compressed volumes/files/dirs.
+
+	- Fixed handling of directories when cluster size exceeds index block
+	  size.
+	- Hide DOS only name space directory entries from readdir() but allow
+	  them in lookup(). This should fix the problem that Linux doesn't
+	  support directory hard links, while still allowing access to entries
+	  via their short file name. This also has the benefit of mimicking
+	  what Windows users are used to, so it is the ideal solution.
+	- Implemented sync_page everywhere so no more hangs in D state when
+	  waiting for a page.
+	- Stop using bforget() in favour of brelse().
+	- Stop locking buffers unnecessarily.
+	- Implemented compressed files (inode->mapping contains uncompressed
+	  data, raw compressed data is currently bread() into a vmalloc()ed
+	  memory buffer).
+	- Enable compressed directories. (Their index root is marked compressed
+	  to indicate that new files in that directory should be created
+	  compressed.)
+	- Use vsnprintf rather than vsprintf in the ntfs_error and ntfs_warning
+	  functions. (Thanks to Will Dyson for pointing this out.)
+	- Moved the ntfs_inode and ntfs_volume (the former ntfs_inode_info and
+	  ntfs_sb_info) out of the common inode and super_block structures and
+	  started using the generic_ip and generic_sbp pointers instead. This
+	  makes ntfs entirely private with respect to the kernel tree.
+	- Detect compiler version and abort with error message if gcc less than
+	  2.96 is used.
+	- Fix bug in name comparison function in unistr.c.
+	- Implement attribute lists part 1, the infrastructure: search contexts
+	  and operations, find_external_attr(), lookup_attr()) and make the
+	  code use the infrastructure.
+	- Fix stupid buffer overflow bug that became apparent on larger run
+	  list containing attributes.
+	- Fix bugs in readdir() that became apparent on larger directories.
+
+	The driver is now really useful and survives the test
+		find . -type f -exec md5sum "{}" \;
+	without any error messages on a over 1GiB sized partition with >16k
+	files on it, including compressed files and directories and many files
+	and directories with attribute lists.
+
+tng-0.0.1 - The first useful version.
+
+	- Added ntfs_lookup().
+	- Added default upcase generation and handling.
+	- Added compile options to be shown on module init.
+	- Many bug fixes that were "hidden" before.
+	- Update to latest kernel.
+	- Added ntfs_readdir().
+	- Added file operations for mmap(), read(), open() and llseek(). We just
+	  use the generic ones. The whole point of going through implementing
+	  readpage() methods and where possible get_block() call backs is that
+	  this allows us to make use of the generic high level methods provided
+	  by the kernel.
+
+	The driver is now actually useful! Yey. (-: It undoubtedly has got bugs
+	though and it doesn't implement accesssing compressed files yet. Also,
+	accessing files with attribute list attributes is not implemented yet
+	either. But for small or simple file systems it should work and allow
+	you to list directories, use stat on directory entries and the file
+	system, open, read, mmap and llseek around in files. A big mile stone
+	has been reached!
+
+tng-0.0.0 - Initial version tag.
+
+	Initial driver implementation. The driver can mount and umount simple
+	NTFS file systems (i.e. ones without attribute lists in the system
+	files). If the mount fails there might be problems in the error handling
+	code paths, so be warned. Otherwise it seems to be loading the system
+	files nicely and the mft record read mapping/unmapping seems to be
+	working nicely, too. Proof of inode metadata in the page cache and non-
+	resident file unnamed stream data in the page cache concepts is thus
+	complete.

+ * @ctx->attr will point to the found attribute. If not found, find_attr()
+ * returns FALSE and @ctx->attr is undefined (i.e. do not rely on it not
+ * changing).
+ *
+ * If @ctx->is_first is TRUE, the search begins with @ctx->attr itself. If it
+ * is FALSE, the search begins after @ctx->attr.
+ *
+ * If @ic is IGNORE_CASE, the @name comparisson is not case sensitive and
+ * @ctx->ntfs_ino must be set to the ntfs inode to which the mft record
+ * @ctx->mrec belongs. This is so we can get at the ntfs volume and hence at
+ * the upcase table. If @ic is CASE_SENSITIVE, the comparison is case
+ * sensitive. When @name is present, @name_len is the @name length in Unicode
+ * characters.
+ *
+ * If @name is not present (NULL), we assume that the unnamed attribute is
+ * being searched for.
+ *
+ * Finally, the resident attribute value @val is looked for, if present. If @val
+ * is not present (NULL), @val_len is ignored.
+ *
+ * find_attr() only searches the specified mft record and it ignores the
+ * presence of an attribute list attribute (unless it is the one being searched
+ * for, obviously). If you need to take attribute lists into consideration, use
+ * lookup_attr() instead (see below). This also means that you cannot use
+ * find_attr() to search for extent records of non-resident attributes, as
+ * extents with lowest_vcn != 0 are usually described by the attribute list
+ * attribute only. - Note that it is possible that the first extent is only in
+ * the attribute list while the last extent is in the base mft record, so don't
+ * rely on being able to find the first extent in the base mft record.
+ *
+ * Warning: Never use @val when looking for attribute types which can be

+ *
+ * We mark the inode dirty by setting both the page in which the mft record
+ * resides and the buffer heads in that page which correspond to the mft record
+ * dirty. This ensures that the changes will eventually be propagated to disk
+ * when the inode is set dirty.
+ *
+ * FIXME: Can we do that with the buffer heads? I am not too sure. Because if we
+ * do that we need to make sure that the kernel will not write out those buffer
+ * heads or we are screwed as it will write corrupt data to disk. The only way
+ * a mft record can be written correctly is by mst protecting it, writting it
+ * synchronously and fast mst deprotecting it. During this period, obviously,
+ * the mft record must be marked as not uptodate, be locked for writing or
+ * whatever, so that nobody attempts anything stupid.

+ * COLLATION_NTOFS_ULONGS - Sorting is done according to a sequence of ascending

+ *	sorts by object_id (16-byte), by splitting up the object_id in four
+ *	u32 values and using them as individual keys. E.g. take the following
+ *	two security_ids, stored as follows on disk:
+ *		1st: a1 61 65 b7 65 7b d4 11 9e 3d 00 e0 81 10 42 59

+ *	Now, it is apparent why the 2nd object_id collates after the 1st: the
+ *	first u32 value of the 1st object_id is less than the first u32 of

+ * Attribute compression.
+ *
+ * Only the data attribute is ever compressed in the current ntfs driver in
+ * Windows. Further, compression is only applied when the data attribute is
+ * non-resident. Finally, to use compression, the maximum allowed cluster size
+ * on a volume is 4kib.
+ *
+ * The compression method is based on independently compressing blocks of X
+ * clusters, where X is determined from the compression_unit value found in the
+ * non-resident attribute record header (more precisely: X = 2^compression_unit
+ * clusters). On Windows NT/2k, X always is 16 clusters (compression_unit = 4).
+ *
+ * There are three different cases of how a compression block of X clusters
+ * can be stored:
+ *
+ *   1) The data in the block is all zero (a sparse block):
+ *	  This is stored as a sparse block in the run list, i.e. the run list
+ *	  entry has length = X and lcn = -1. The mapping pairs array actually
+ *	  uses a delta_lcn value length of 0, i.e. delta_lcn is not present at
+ *	  all, which is then interpreted by the driver as lcn = -1.
+ *	  NOTE: Even uncompressed files can be sparse on NTFS 3.0 volumes, then
+ *	  the same principles apply as above, except that the length is not
+ *	  restricted to being any particular value.
+ *
+ *   2) The data in the block is not compressed:
+ *	  This happens when compression doesn't reduce the size of the block
+ *	  in clusters. I.e. if compression has a small effect so that the
+ *	  compressed data still occupies X clusters, then the uncompressed data
+ *	  is stored in the block.
+ *	  This case is recognised by the fact that the run list entry has
+ *	  length = X and lcn >= 0. The mapping pairs array stores this as
+ *	  normal with a run length of X and some specific delta_lcn, i.e.
+ *	  delta_lcn has to be present.
+ *
+ *   3) The data in the block is compressed:
+ *	  The common case. This case is recognised by the fact that the run
+ *	  list entry has length L < X and lcn >= 0. The mapping pairs array
+ *	  stores this as normal with a run length of X and some specific
+ *	  delta_lcn, i.e. delta_lcn has to be present. This run list entry is
+ *	  immediately followed by a sparse entry with length = X - L and
+ *	  lcn = -1. The latter entry is to make up the vcn counting to the
+ *	  full compression block size X.
+ *
+ * In fact, life is more complicated because adjacent entries of the same type
+ * can be coalesced. This means that one has to keep track of the number of
+ * clusters handled and work on a basis of X clusters at a time being one
+ * block. An example: if length L > X this means that this particular run list
+ * entry contains a block of length X and part of one or more blocks of length
+ * L - X. Another example: if length L < X, this does not necessarily mean that
+ * the block is compressed as it might be that the lcn changes inside the block
+ * and hence the following run list entry describes the continuation of the
+ * potentially compressed block. The block would be compressed if the
+ * following run list entry describes at least X - L sparse clusters, thus
+ * making up the compression block length as described in point 3 above. (Of
+ * course, there can be several run list entries with small lengths so that the
+ * sparse entry does not follow the first data containing entry with
+ * length < X.)
+ *
+ * NOTE: At the end of the compressed attribute value, there most likely is not
+ * just the right amount of data to make up a compression block, thus this data
+ * is not even attempted to be compressed. It is just stored as is, unless
+ * the number of clusters it occupies is reduced when compressed in which case
+ * it is stored as a compressed compression block, complete with sparse
+ * clusters at the end.

+ * First, take the mrec_lock semaphore for reading or writing, depending on
+ * the value or @rw. We might now be sleeping, while waiting for the semaphore
+ * if it was already locked by someone else.
+ *
+ * Then increment the map reference count and return the mft. If this is the
+ * first invocation, the page of the record is first mapped using
+ * map_mft_record_page().
+ *
+ * This in turn uses ntfs_map_page() to get the page containing the wanted mft
+ * record (it in turn calls read_cache_page() which reads it in from disk if
+ * necessary, increments the use count on the page so that it cannot disappear
+ * under us and returns a reference to the page cache page).
+ *
+ * If read_cache_page() invokes ntfs_mft_readpage() to load the page from disk,
+ * it sets PG_locked and clears PG_uptodate on the page. Once I/O has
+ * completed and the post-read mst fixups on each mft record in the page have
+ * been performed, the page gets PG_uptodate set and PG_locked cleared (this is
+ * done in our asynchronous I/O completion handler end_buffer_read_mft_async()).
+ * ntfs_map_page() waits for PG_locked to become clear and checks if
+ * PG_uptodate is set and returns an error code if not. This provides
+ * sufficient protection against races when reading/using the page.
+ *
+ * However there is the write mapping to think about. Doing the above described
+ * checking here will be fine, because when initiating the write we will set
+ * PG_locked and clear PG_uptodate making sure nobody is touching the page
+ * contents. Doing the locking this way means that the commit to disk code in
+ * the page cache code paths is automatically sufficiently locked with us as
+ * we will not touch a page that has been locked or is not uptodate. The only
+ * locking problem then is them locking the page while we are accessing it.
+ *
+ * So that code will end up having to own the mrec_lock of all mft
+ * records/inodes present in the page before I/O can proceed. Grr. In that
+ * case we wouldn't need need to bother with PG_locked and PG_uptodate as
+ * nobody will be accessing anything without owning the mrec_lock semaphore.
+ * But we do need to use them because of the read_cache_page() invokation and
+ * the code becomes so much simpler this way that it is well worth it.
+ *
+ * The mft record is now ours and we return a pointer to it. You need to check
+ * the returned pointer with IS_ERR() and if that is true, PTR_ERR() will return
+ * the error code. The following error codes are defined:
