The Hurd gained[0] support for moving the translator and author
fields out of the inode and into the "gnu.*" xattr namespace.
In anticipation of that, an xattr INDEX was reserved[1]. The Hurd has
now been brought into compliance[2] with that.
This patch adds support for reading and writing such attributes from
Linux; you can now do something like
mkdir -p hurd-root/servers/socket
touch hurd-root/servers/socket/1
setfattr --name=gnu.translator --value='"/hurd/pflocal\0"' \
hurd-root/servers/socket/1
getfattr --name=gnu.translator hurd-root/servers/socket/1
# file: 1
gnu.translator="/hurd/pflocal"
to setup a pipe translator, which is being used to create[3] a
vm-image for the Hurd from GNU Guix.

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.
