== Pluggable IO schedulers framework in the multiqueue block layer ==

The Linux block layer is know to have different IO schedulers (deadline, cfq, noop, etc) with different performance characteristics each one, and users are allowed to switch between them on the fly. In Linux 3.13, the block layer [https://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_3.13#head-3e5f0c2bcebc98efd197e3036dd814eadd62839c added a new multiqueue design] that performs better with modern hardware (eg. SSD, NVM). However, this new multiqueue design didn't include support for pluggable IO schedulers.

This release solves that problem with the merge of a multiqueue-ready IO scheduling framework. A port of the deadline scheduler has also been added (more IO schedulers will be added in the future)

== Scalable swapping for SSDs ==

Modern storage devices such as SSDs are making the usage of swapping attractive not just as a way to deal with excessive memory load, but also as a performance enhancement technique. Cloud providers, for example, can overcommit memory more aggressively and fit more VMs to a platform with a fast swap device. However, the swapping implementation was designed for traditional rotating hard disks, where the performance and latency of the swap did not matter as much as it does with modern storage. This release makes the swap implementation more scalable, making it more suitable for use with modern storage devices.

== Journaled RAID5 to close the write hole ==

Based in work [https://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_4.4#head-35757d5a814256056c5c4bb7c00e4fbc57ea69d3 started] in Linux 4.4, this release adds journalling support to RAID4/5/6 in the MD layer (not to be confused with btrfs RAID). With a journal device configured (typically NVRAM or SSD), the "[http://www.raid-recovery-guide.com/raid5-write-hole.aspx RAID5 write hole]" is closed - a crash during degraded operations cannot result in data corruption.

== statx(2), a modern stat(2) alternative ==

Due to several shortcomings in the stat(2) system call (like not being y2038 ready or not playing well with networking filesystems), a new system call has been worked through the years, with the final result being statx(2), a new system call that has been added in this release.

== New perf ftrace tool ==

A new tool has been added to the perf toolkit: perf ftrace. This tool intends to be a simple perf front-end for the already existing [https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt ftrace] interface. In this release, it only supports two tracers, function_graph or function (default tracer is function_graph, it can be configured in the {{{ftrace.tracer}}} config key). Only single thread tracing and the tool just reads trace_pipe in text and then write it to stdout. More features are expected in future releases.

== Support for OPAL drives ==
The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opal_Storage_Specification Opal Storage Specification] is a set of specifications for features of data storage devices (such as disk drives) that enhance their security. For example, it defines a way of encrypting the stored data so that an unauthorized person who gains possession of the device cannot see the data. That is, it is a specification for self-encrypting drives.

This release adds Linux support for Opal nvme enabled controllers. It enables users to setup/unlock/lock locking ranges for SED devices using the Opal protocol.

== Support for the SMC-R protocol (RFC7609) ==

This release includes the initial part of the implementation of the "Shared Memory Communications-RDMA" (SMC-R) protocol as defined in [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7609 RFC7609]. SMC-R is an IBM  protocol that provides RDMA capabilities over RoCE transparently for applications exploiting TCP sockets. While SMC-R does not aim to replace TCP, it taps a wealth of existing data center TCP socket applications to become more efficient without the need for rewriting them. A new socket protocol family {{{PF_SMC}}} is introduced. There are no changes required to applications using the sockets API for TCP stream sockets other than the specification of the new socket family {{{AF_SMC}}}. Unmodified applications can be used by means of a dynamic preload shared library.

SMC-R uses RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) to save CPU consumption. SMC-R inherits TCP qualities such as reliable connections, host-based firewall packet filtering (on connection establishment) and unmodified application of communication encryption such as TLS (transport layer security) or SSL (secure sockets layer). Since original TCP is used to establish SMC-R connections, load balancers and packet inspection based on TCP/IP connection establishment continue to work for SMC-R.

== Persistent scrollback buffers for all VGA consoles ==

Not an important feature, specially for tmux/screen users, but probably annoying for many others: this release adds optional support for scrollback history not being flushed when switching between consoles (this breaks tools like clear_console that rely on flushing the scrollback history by switching back and forth between consoles which is why this feature is disabled by default. Use the escape sequence {{{\e[3J}}} instead for flushing the buffer)

 * TCP
  * Enables RACK loss detection (draft-ietf-tcpm-rack-01) to trigger fast recovery with a reordering timer. A few similar heuristics are no longer needed and are either removed or disabled to reduce the complexity of the Linux TCP loss recovery engine: 1) FACK (Forward Acknowledgement), 2) Early Retransmit (RFC5827), 3) thin_dupack (fast recovery on single DUPACK for thin-streams), 4) NCR (Non-Congestion Robustness RFC4653), and 5) Forward Retransmit. After this change, Linux's loss recovery algorithms consist of: 1) Conventional DUPACK threshold approach (RFC6675), 2) RACK and Tail Loss Probe (draft-ietf-tcpm-rack-01), 3) RTO plus F-RTO extension (RFC5682) [https://git.kernel.org/linus/db8da6bb574e1692cb86624317c572b0b9306560 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/e636f8b0104d6622aaaed6aa5ef17dfbf165bc51 commit] ,[https://git.kernel.org/linus/deed7be78f512d003c6290da0a781479b31b3d74 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/57dde7f70de34d4251f291c9eac7ad920aaf56b2 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/1d0833df594390876647c54c2c88069d29059665 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/98e36d449cc681f1bb2ce2230243f7f977a7da1b commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/a0370b3f3f2cfb8b424b04c0545414abaa53f5ee commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/89fe18e44f7ee5ab1c90d0dff5835acee7751427 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/840a3cbe89694fad75578856976f180e852e69aa commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/bec41a11dd3dc8c54f766b4f494140ca92ba7c10 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/ac229dca7e4e582114e1ec9765fda0915aa58468 commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/4a7f6009441144783e5925551c72e3f2e1b0839b commit], [https://git.kernel.org/linus/94bdc9785a1136cef6a982b042719783978e8a26 commit]
