surface-camera-build 71552fc157 cube(2): CUBE_OP_FLAG_SCAN takes a scope — one space, or every space
"Every error anywhere" and "every error here" are different questions, and
a space is a hard partition, so the scope is a field rather than a widening.
It is not a reserved space id because there is no such id to reserve: every
32-byte value is a legitimate space, root 0x00 and edge 0xFF…FF among them,
so a sentinel would be a space somebody could name. The field occupies what
was padding, which keeps sizeof unchanged — and that matters, because size is
what says which argument block arrived and cube_args is exactly eight bytes
wider.

An every-space answer carries each frame's space, and that is not decoration:
a walk's frame omits the space on the grounds that the caller named it, and
this caller named none. A coordinate is meaningless without its space, so an
answer that left it out would be unusable rather than merely terse. The space
leads because the (space, key) pair it forms is the order records are stored
in and returned in — so an every-space scan answers in exactly the order a
checkpoint writes.

The walk visits the space table's order and puts a space only the log writes
into in its place in that same order, which is the one thing a plain walk of
the table would miss entirely. A scope or mode this build does not know is
refused rather than defaulted: silently answering a narrower question than the
one asked is as quiet a way to be wrong as answering a wider one.

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
