[RFC PATCH 02/10] ftrfs: add superblock operations
From: Aurelien DESBRIERES
Date: Mon Apr 13 2026 - 08:25:43 EST
From: Aurélien DESBRIERES <aurelien@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Implement VFS superblock operations for FTRFS:
- ftrfs_fill_super(): read and validate on-disk superblock (magic,
CRC32), allocate ftrfs_sb_info, read root inode, initialize
in-memory free block bitmap
- ftrfs_put_super(): release bitmap and buffer heads on unmount
- ftrfs_statfs(): report filesystem statistics
- ftrfs_write_inode(): persist inode to disk via namei.c
- ftrfs_init_fs_context() / ftrfs_get_tree(): kernel 5.15+ mount API
- ftrfs_free_inode(): kernel 5.9+ inode freeing API
Module init/exit registers ftrfs as a filesystem type and allocates
a dedicated slab cache for ftrfs_inode_info objects.
