Linux kernel source tree

It's possible for checksum errors to be transient - e.g. flakey controller or cable, thus we need additional retries (besides retrying from different replicas) before we can definitely return an error. This is particularly important for the next patch, which will allow the data move path to move extents with checksum errors - we don't want to accidentally introduce bitrot due to a transient error! - bch2_bkey_pick_read_device() is substantially reworked, and bch2_dev_io_failures is expanded to record more information about the type of failure (i.e. number of checksum errors). It now returns an error code that describes more precisely the reason for the failure - checksum error, io error, or offline device, instead of the previous generic "insufficient devices". This is important for the next patches that add poisoning, as we only want to poison extents when we've got real checksum errors (or perhaps IO errors?) - not because a device was offline. - Add a new option and superblock field for the number of checksum retries.

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.
