Linus Torvalds ca95bf62fc linux-kselftest-4.18-rc1
This Kselftest update for 4.18-rc1 consists of:
 
 - Work to restructure timers test suite to move PIE out of rtctest from
   Alexandre Belloni.
 
 - Several minor spelling and bug fixes.
 
 - New cgroup tests from Roman Gushchin and Mike Rapoport.
 
 - Kselftest framework changes to handle and report skipped tests correctly.
   Prior to these changes, framework treated all non-zero return codes from
   tests as failures. When tests are skipped with non-zero return code, due
   to unmet dependencies and/or unsupported configuration, reporting them as
   failed lead to false negatives on the tests that couldn't be run.
 
 - Fixes to test Makefiles to remove unnecessary RUN_TESTS and EMIT_TESTS
   overrides and use common defines from lib.mk.
 
 - Fixes to several tests to return correct Kselftest skip code.
 
 - Changes to improve test output.

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.
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.
