+/*
+ * This bitset type is a thin wrapper round a dm_array of 64bit words. It
+ * uses a tiny, one word cache to reduce the number of array lookups and so
+ * increase performance.
+ *
+ * Like the dm-array that it's based on, the caller needs to keep track of
+ * the size of the bitset separately. The underlying dm-array implicitly
+ * knows how many words it's storing and will return -ENODATA if you try
+ * and access an out of bounds word. However, an out of bounds bit in the
+ * final word will _not_ be detected, you have been warned.
+ *
+ * Bits are indexed from zero.
+
+ * Typical use:
+ *
+ * a) Initialise a dm_disk_bitset structure with dm_disk_bitset_init().
+ * This describes the bitset and includes the cache. It's not called it
+ * dm_bitset_info in line with other data structures because it does
+ * include instance data.
+ *
+ * b) Get yourself a root. The root is the index of a block of data on the
+ * disk that holds a particular instance of an bitset. You may have a
+ * pre existing root in your metadata that you wish to use, or you may
+ * want to create a brand new, empty bitset with dm_bitset_empty().
+ *
+ * Like the other data structures in this library, dm_bitset objects are
+ * immutable between transactions. Update functions will return you the
+ * root for a _new_ array. If you've incremented the old root, via
+ * dm_tm_inc(), before calling the update function you may continue to use
+ * it in parallel with the new root.
+ *
+ * Even read operations may trigger the cache to be flushed and as such
+ * return a root for a new, updated bitset.
+ *
+ * c) resize a bitset with dm_bitset_resize().
+ *
+ * d) Set a bit with dm_bitset_set_bit().
+ *
+ * e) Clear a bit with dm_bitset_clear_bit().
+ *
+ * f) Test a bit with dm_bitset_test_bit().
+ *
+ * g) Flush all updates from the cache with dm_bitset_flush().
+ *
+ * h) Destroy the bitset with dm_bitset_del(). This tells the transaction
+ * manager that you're no longer using this data structure so it can
+ * recycle it's blocks. (dm_bitset_dec() would be a better name for it,
+ * but del is in keeping with dm_btree_del()).
