Linus Torvalds 5b5d3be5d6 Merge tag 'var-init-v5.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux
Pull automatic variable initialization updates from Kees Cook:
 "This adds the "zero" init option from Clang, which is being used
  widely in production builds of Android and Chrome OS (though it also
  keeps the "pattern" init, which is better for debug builds).

   - Introduce CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO (Alexander Potapenko)"

* tag 'var-init-v5.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux:
  security: allow using Clang's zero initialization for stack variables

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.
