Linux kernel source tree
ca01a90ae7
When using relay mechanism, we often encounter the case where new data are lost or old unconsumed data are overwritten because of slow reader. Add 'full' field in per-cpu buffer structure to detect if the above case is happening. Relay has two modes: 1) non-overwrite mode, 2) overwrite mode. So buffer being full here respectively means: 1) relayfs doesn't intend to accept new data and then simply drop them, or 2) relayfs is going to start over again and overwrite old unread data with new data. Note: this counter doesn't need any explicit lock to protect from being modified by different threads for the better performance consideration. Writers calling __relay_write/relay_write should consider how to use the lock and ensure it performs under the lock protection, thus it's not necessary to add a new small lock here.

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.
