Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 83bc9c371e perf trace beauty: Beautify pkey_{alloc,free,mprotect} arguments
Reuse 'mprotect' beautifiers for 'pkey_mprotect'.

System wide tracing pkey_alloc, pkey_free and pkey_mprotect calls, with
backtraces:

  # perf trace -e pkey_alloc,pkey_mprotect,pkey_free --max-stack=5
     0.000 ( 0.011 ms): pkey/7818 pkey_alloc(init_val: DISABLE_ACCESS|DISABLE_WRITE) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
                                       syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
                                       pkey_alloc (/home/acme/c/pkey)
     0.022 ( 0.003 ms): pkey/7818 pkey_mprotect(start: 0x7f28c3890000, len: 4096, prot: READ|WRITE, pkey: -1) = 0
                                       syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
                                       pkey_mprotect (/home/acme/c/pkey)
     0.030 ( 0.002 ms): pkey/7818 pkey_free(pkey: -1                               ) = -1 EINVAL Invalid argument
                                       syscall (/usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
                                       pkey_free (/home/acme/c/pkey)

The tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h file is used to find
the access rights defines for the pkey_alloc syscall second argument.

Since we have the detector of changes for the tools/include header files
versus its kernel origin (include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h), we'll
get whatever new flag appears for that argument automatically.

This method should be used in other cases where it is easy to generate
those flags tables because the header has properly namespaced defines
like PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS and PKEY_DISABLE_WRITE.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
