are the basis for deploying DM-based storage in a "cloud" that must validate configurations end-users run to maintain trust. These DM changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime). - Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc(). - Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt. - Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess how the writecache is performing. - Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCAAdFiEEJfWUX4UqZ4x1O2wixSPxCi2dA1oFAmEuWG0ACgkQxSPxCi2d A1rZIgf+JSSR2/DBg4j9w0oVsay+rfFB+tyZLVvHFEraukDbxOKy7Dck1GZybQBq mFTqCWKQHOvME4nf4swIY/klPi3VhPNyWDY/hI/FAFaiTskLqjxhQQc1+cECLkMx ittIKYvWgcg7kflCuN6LiUslTB/P4Lo6GmNqMOhFn3nkN5hg76xaxPK+JCMGLgTM qs+mbZfB1Z51G+cDlU0E5WCn37k/jqqwhb8NN90Zozgi7ByQEO01bd2EkSsYT0T/ ZrDOWP8M8u14QHAV0e8n9e6a/d5atIV5g/+XrDbVDvzwtq7eI+ojBNHDBpcgxiH7 /AVb9AM4Pd87ExWMbsBxr3Hgbc5+dQ== =yIsi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-5.15/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - Add DM infrastructure for IMA-based remote attestion.

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.
