mainlining shenanigans
Go to file
Linus Torvalds 039aeb9deb ARM:
- Move the arch-specific code into arch/arm64/kvm
 - Start the post-32bit cleanup
 - Cherry-pick a few non-invasive pre-NV patches
 
 x86:
 - Rework of TLB flushing
 - Rework of event injection, especially with respect to nested virtualization
 - Nested AMD event injection facelift, building on the rework of generic code
 and fixing a lot of corner cases
 - Nested AMD live migration support
 - Optimization for TSC deadline MSR writes and IPIs
 - Various cleanups
 - Asynchronous page fault cleanups (from tglx, common topic branch with tip tree)
 - Interrupt-based delivery of asynchronous "page ready" events (host side)
 - Hyper-V MSRs and hypercalls for guest debugging
 - VMX preemption timer fixes
 
 s390:
 - Cleanups
 
 Generic:
 - switch vCPU thread wakeup from swait to rcuwait
 
 The other architectures, and the guest side of the asynchronous page fault
 work, will come next week.

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.
