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.

clang points out that the computation of LOWMEM_PAGES causes a signed
integer overflow on 32-bit x86:
arch/x86/kernel/head32.c:83:20: error: signed shift result (0x100000000) requires 34 bits to represent, but 'int' only has 32 bits [-Werror,-Wshift-overflow]
(PAGE_TABLE_SIZE(LOWMEM_PAGES) << PAGE_SHIFT);
^~~~~~~~~~~~
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_32.h:109:27: note: expanded from macro 'LOWMEM_PAGES'
#define LOWMEM_PAGES ((((2<<31) - __PAGE_OFFSET) >> PAGE_SHIFT))
~^ ~~
arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable_32.h:98:34: note: expanded from macro 'PAGE_TABLE_SIZE'
#define PAGE_TABLE_SIZE(pages) ((pages) / PTRS_PER_PGD)
Use the _ULL() macro to make it a 64-bit constant.
Fixes: 1e620f9b ("x86/boot/32: Convert the 32-bit pgtable setup code from assembly to C")
