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.

dm-integrity will deadlock if overlapping I/O is issued to it, the bug was introduced by commit 724376a0 ("dm integrity: implement fair range locks"). Users rarely use overlapping I/O so this bug went undetected until now. Fix this bug by correcting, likely cut-n-paste, typos in ranges_overlap() and also remove a flawed ranges_overlap() check in remove_range_unlocked(). This condition could leave unprocessed bios hanging on wait_list forever.
