Add kstrtoul() to ../boot/ to be used by facilities there too. [ bp: Massage, make _kstrtoul() static. Prepend function names with "boot_". This is a temporary workaround for build errors like: ld: arch/x86/boot/compressed/acpi.o: in function `count_immovable_mem_regions': acpi.c:(.text+0x463): undefined reference to `_kstrtoul' make[2]: *** [arch/x86/boot/compressed/Makefile:117: arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux] Error 1 due to the namespace clash between x86/boot/ and kernel proper. Future reorg will get rid of the linux/linux/ namespace as much as possible so that x86/boot/ can be independent from kernel proper. ] Signed-off-by: Vamshi K Sthambamkadi <vamshi.k.sthambamkadi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1587645588-7130-2-git-send-email-vamshi.k.sthambamkadi@gmail.com
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.
