Enhance extent bitmap tests for the following aspects: - Remove unnecessary @len from __test_eb_bitmaps() We can fetch the length from extent buffer - Explicitly distinguish bit and byte length Now every start/len inside bitmap tests would have either "byte_" or "bit_" prefix to make it more explicit. - Better error reporting If we have mismatch bits, the error report would dump the following contents: * start bytenr * bit number * the full byte from bitmap * the full byte from the extent This is to save developers time so obvious problem can be found immediately - Extract bitmap set/clear and check operation into two helpers This is to save some code lines, as we will have more tests to do. - Add new tests The following tests are added, mostly for the incoming extent bitmap accessor refactoring: * Set bits inside the same byte * Clear bits inside the same byte * Cross byte boundary set * Cross byte boundary clear * Cross multi-byte boundary set * Cross multi-byte boundary clear Those new tests have already saved my backend for the incoming extent buffer bitmap refactoring.

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 Restructured Text 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.
