implementation details that do not belong in DM crypt. The wrapper template for ESSIV generation that was factored out will also be used by fscrypt in the future. - Add root hash pkcs#7 signature verification to the DM verity target. - Add a new "clone" DM target that allows for efficient remote replication of a device. - Enhance DM bufio's cache to be tailored to each client based on use. Clients that make heavy use of the cache get more of it, and those that use less have reduced cache usage. - Add a new DM_GET_TARGET_VERSION ioctl to allow userspace to query the version number of a DM target (even if the associated module isn't yet loaded). - Fix invalid memory access in DM zoned target. - Fix the max_discard_sectors limit advertised by the DM raid target; it was mistakenly storing the limit in bytes rather than sectors. - Small optimizations and cleanups in DM writecache target. - Various fixes and cleanups in DM core, DM raid1 and space map portion of DM persistent data library. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFHBAABCAAxFiEEJfWUX4UqZ4x1O2wixSPxCi2dA1oFAl2D7ycTHHNuaXR6ZXJA cmVkaGF0LmNvbQAKCRDFI/EKLZ0DWp9QCACwTkVGzPGMCbAaCVlCACo8B5JyY4OO FNxucqUlt1MHKuBbzJd4XwNGlLg68xjMUKVPYPlgina7TaDl+wvlTbHchaJS8nak x1zyhDSywy0F9f6HHiXJi/vshmAfa0xnIM6fQXVPM346S6xf9u7hqOJQMCrdvY92 w4FhuW9nVt5xizo8iC/3LzoWbhrWncT7dyZUZtG3/tmglhkEK7QwctlgQxcD7tXg H1lhntQzHzpxQAVBefWWdw7ubuDd6XCHuQMaxRhyR++c62P3eKDR8ck9hhd3hZKv E481gtxcsjKuYLxwULjqFJZaNFitWFNMJ7gppQyKRqCzn2zlGAL6npl8 =m6zD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-5.4/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - crypto and DM crypt advances that allow the crypto API to reclaim implementation details that do not belong in DM crypt.

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.
