36 * @idx_ni: index inode containing the @entry described by this context
37 * @entry: index entry (points into @ir or @ia)
38 * @data: index entry data (points into @entry)
39 * @data_len: length in bytes of @data
40 * @is_in_root: 'true' if @entry is in @ir and 'false' if it is in @ia
41 * @ir: index root if @is_in_root and NULL otherwise
42 * @actx: attribute search context if @is_in_root and NULL otherwise
43 * @base_ni: base inode if @is_in_root and NULL otherwise
44 * @ia: index block if @is_in_root is 'false' and NULL otherwise
45 * @page: page if @is_in_root is 'false' and NULL otherwise
47 * @idx_ni is the index inode this context belongs to.
49 * @entry is the index entry described by this context. @data and @data_len
50 * are the index entry data and its length in bytes, respectively. @data
51 * simply points into @entry. This is probably what the user is interested in.
53 * If @is_in_root is 'true', @entry is in the index root attribute @ir described
54 * by the attribute search context @actx and the base inode @base_ni. @ia and
55 * @page are NULL in this case.
57 * If @is_in_root is 'false', @entry is in the index allocation attribute and @ia
58 * and @page point to the index allocation block and the mapped, locked page it
59 * is in, respectively. @ir, @actx and @base_ni are NULL in this case.
61 * To obtain a context call ntfs_index_ctx_get().
63 * We use this context to allow ntfs_index_lookup() to return the found index
64 * @entry and its @data without having to allocate a buffer and copy the @entry
65 * and/or its @data into it.
67 * When finished with the @entry and its @data, call ntfs_index_ctx_put() to
68 * free the context and other associated resources.
70 * If the index entry was modified, call flush_dcache_index_entry_page()
71 * immediately after the modification and either ntfs_index_entry_mark_dirty()
72 * or ntfs_index_entry_write() before the call to ntfs_index_ctx_put() to
73 * ensure that the changes are written to disk.

135 * dirty index block, will be written out to disk later.
