Linus Torvalds 4afb65156a A RT fix for lockdep. lockdep invokes prandom_u32() to create cookies. This
worked until prandom_u32() was switched to the real random generator, which
 takes a spinlock for extraction, which does not work on RT when invoked
 from atomic contexts. lockdep has no requirement for real random numbers
 and it turns out sched_clock() is good enough to create the cookie. That
 works everywhere and is faster.

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.
