Documentation: move driver-api/dcdbas to userspace-api/

2024-01-03T21:17:40+00:00

This file documents a sysfs interface that is intended for systems management software. It does NOT document any kind of kernel driver API. It is also not meant to be used directly by system administrators or users.

Documentation: move driver-api/isapnp to userspace-api/

2024-01-03T21:17:39+00:00

driver-api/isapnp documents /proc interfaces for interfacing directly with ISA Plug & Play devices, not any kind of API for kernel developers, and should thus also live under userspace-api/. Also fix a few issues while we're at it.

Documentation: Destage TEE subsystem documentation

2023-12-08T22:45:10+00:00

Add a separate documentation directory for TEE subsystem since it is a standalone subsystem which already offers devices consumed by multiple different subsystem drivers. Split overall TEE subsystem documentation modularly where: - The userspace API has been moved to Documentation/userspace-api/tee.rst. - The driver API has been moved to Documentation/driver-api/tee.rst. - The first module covers the overview of TEE subsystem. - The further modules are dedicated to different TEE implementations like: - OP-TEE - AMD-TEE - and so on for future TEE implementation support.

media: doc: properly format ToC headings

2023-11-17T20:05:26+00:00

"class:: toc-title" was a workaround for older Sphinx versions that are no longer supported. The canonical way to add a heading to the ToC is to use :caption:. Do that.

Pull landlock updates from Mickaël Salaün: "A Landlock ruleset can now handle two new access rights: LANDLOCK_ACCESS_NET_BIND_TCP and LANDLOCK_ACCESS_NET_CONNECT_TCP. When handled, the related actions are denied unless explicitly allowed by a Landlock network rule for a specific port. The related patch series has been reviewed for almost two years, it has evolved a lot and we now have reached a decent design, code and testing. The refactored kernel code and the new test helpers also bring the foundation to support more network protocols. Test coverage for security/landlock is 92.4% of 710 lines according to gcc/gcov-13, and it was 93.1% of 597 lines before this series. The decrease in coverage is due to code refactoring to make the ruleset management more generic (i.e. dealing with inodes and ports) that also added new WARN_ON_ONCE() checks not possible to test from user space. syzkaller has been updated accordingly [4], and such patched instance (tailored to Landlock) has been running for a month, covering all the new network-related code [5]" Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231026014751.414649-1-konstantin.meskhidze@huawei.com [1] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAHC9VhS1wwgH6NNd+cJz4MYogPiRV8NyPDd1yj5SpaxeUB4UVg@mail.gmail.com [2] Link: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next-history.git/commit/?id=c8dc5ee69d3a [3] Link: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/pull/4266 [4] Link: https://storage.googleapis.com/syzbot-assets/82e8608dec36/ci-upstream-linux-next-kasan-gce-root-ab577164.html#security%2flandlock%2fnet.c [5] * tag 'landlock-6.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mic/linux: selftests/landlock: Add tests for FS topology changes with network rules landlock: Document network support samples/landlock: Support TCP restrictions selftests/landlock: Add network tests selftests/landlock: Share enforce_ruleset() helper landlock: Support network rules with TCP bind and connect landlock: Refactor landlock_add_rule() syscall landlock: Refactor layer helpers landlock: Move and rename layer helpers landlock: Refactor merge/inherit_ruleset helpers landlock: Refactor landlock_find_rule/insert_rule helpers landlock: Allow FS topology changes for domains without such rule type landlock: Make ruleset's access masks more generic
