Linux kernel source tree
When we are logging a directory and the log context indicates that we are logging a new name for some other file (that is or was inside that directory), we skip logging the inodes for new dentries in the directory. This is ok most of the time, but if after the rename or link operation that triggered the logging of that directory, we have an explicit fsync of that directory without the directory inode being evicted and reloaded, we end up never logging the inodes for the new dentries that we found during the new name logging, as the next directory fsync will only process dentries that were added after the last time we logged the directory (we are doing an incremental directory logging). So make sure we always log new dentries for a directory even if we are in a context of logging a new name. We started skipping logging inodes for new dentries as of commit |

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 reStructuredText 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.
