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.

Pull HMM updates from Jason Gunthorpe: "Improvements and bug fixes for the hmm interface in the kernel: - Improve clarity, locking and APIs related to the 'hmm mirror' feature merged last cycle. In linux-next we now see AMDGPU and nouveau to be using this API. - Remove old or transitional hmm APIs. These are hold overs from the past with no users, or APIs that existed only to manage cross tree conflicts. There are still a few more of these cleanups that didn't make the merge window cut off. - Improve some core mm APIs: - export alloc_pages_vma() for driver use - refactor into devm_request_free_mem_region() to manage DEVICE_PRIVATE resource reservations - refactor duplicative driver code into the core dev_pagemap struct - Remove hmm wrappers of improved core mm APIs, instead have drivers use the simplified API directly - Remove DEVICE_PUBLIC - Simplify the kconfig flow for the hmm users and core code" * tag 'for-linus-hmm' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma: (42 commits) mm: don't select MIGRATE_VMA_HELPER from HMM_MIRROR mm: remove the HMM config option mm: sort out the DEVICE_PRIVATE Kconfig mess mm: simplify ZONE_DEVICE page private data mm: remove hmm_devmem_add mm: remove hmm_vma_alloc_locked_page nouveau: use devm_memremap_pages directly nouveau: use alloc_page_vma directly PCI/P2PDMA: use the dev_pagemap internal refcount device-dax: use the dev_pagemap internal refcount memremap: provide an optional internal refcount in struct dev_pagemap memremap: replace the altmap_valid field with a PGMAP_ALTMAP_VALID flag memremap: remove the data field in struct dev_pagemap memremap: add a migrate_to_ram method to struct dev_pagemap_ops memremap: lift the devmap_enable manipulation into devm_memremap_pages memremap: pass a struct dev_pagemap to ->kill and ->cleanup memremap: move dev_pagemap callbacks into a separate structure memremap: validate the pagemap type passed to devm_memremap_pages mm: factor out a devm_request_free_mem_region helper mm: export alloc_pages_vma ...
