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.

Add a module parameter cryptomgr.panic_on_fail which causes the kernel to panic if any crypto self-tests fail. Use cases: - More easily detect crypto self-test failures by boot testing, e.g. on KernelCI. - Get a bug report if syzkaller manages to use the template system to instantiate an algorithm that fails its self-tests. The command-line option "fips=1" already does this, but it also makes other changes not wanted for general testing, such as disabling "unapproved" algorithms. panic_on_fail just does what it says.
