Linus Torvalds aa5b537b0e RISC-V Patches for the 5.18 Merge Window, Part 1
* Support for Sv57-based virtual memory.
 * Various improvements for the MicroChip PolarFire SOC and the
   associated Icicle dev board, which should allow upstream kernels to
   boot without any additional modifications.
 * An improved memmove() implementation.
 * Support for the new Ssconfpmf and SBI PMU extensions, which allows for
   a much more useful perf implementation on RISC-V systems.
 * Support for restartable sequences.

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.
