- * nilfs_btnode_prepare_change_key
- *  prepare to move contents of the block for old key to one of new key.
- *  the old buffer will not be removed, but might be reused for new buffer.
- *  it might return -ENOMEM because of memory allocation errors,
- *  and might return -EIO because of disk read errors.

+ *                                   b-tree node block
+ * @btnc: page cache in which the b-tree node block is buffered
+ * @ctxt: structure for exchanging context information for key change
+ *
+ * nilfs_btnode_prepare_change_key() prepares to move the contents of the
+ * b-tree node block of the old key given in the "oldkey" member of @ctxt to
+ * the position of the new key given in the "newkey" member of @ctxt in the
+ * page cache @btnc.  Here, the key of the block is an index in units of
+ * blocks, and if the page and block sizes match, it matches the page index
+ * in the page cache.
+ *
+ * If the page size and block size match, this function attempts to move the
+ * entire folio, and in preparation for this, inserts the original folio into
+ * the new index of the cache.  If this insertion fails or if the page size
+ * and block size are different, it falls back to a copy preparation using
+ * nilfs_btnode_create_block(), inserts a new block at the position
+ * corresponding to "newkey", and stores the buffer head pointer in the
+ * "newbh" member of @ctxt.
+ *
+ * Note that the current implementation does not support folio sizes larger
+ * than the page size.
+ *
+ * Return: 0 on success, or the following negative error code on failure.
+ * * %-EIO	- I/O error (metadata corruption).
+ * * %-ENOMEM	- Insufficient memory available.
