docs: kdump: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-06-14T20:21:24+00:00

Convert kdump documentation to ReST and add it to the user faced manual, as the documents are mainly focused on sysadmins that would be enabling kdump. Note: the vmcoreinfo.rst has one very long title on one of its sub-sections: PG_lru|PG_private|PG_swapcache|PG_swapbacked|PG_slab|PG_hwpoision|PG_head_mask|PAGE_BUDDY_MAPCOUNT_VALUE(~PG_buddy)|PAGE_OFFLINE_MAPCOUNT_VALUE(~PG_offline) I opted to break this one, into two entries with the same content, in order to make it easier to display after being parsed in html and PDF. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

The documentation is in a format that is very close to ReST format.

We need to pick up post-rc1 changes to various document files so they don't get lost in Mauro's massive RST conversion push.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon: "Another round of mostly-benign fixes, the exception being a boot crash on SVE2-capable CPUs (although I don't know where you'd find such a thing, so maybe it's benign too).

Summary: - Fix boot crash on platforms with SVE2 due to missing register encoding - Fix architected timer accessors when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING=y - Move cpu_logical_map into smp.h for use by upcoming irqchip drivers - Trivial typo fix in comment - Disable some useless, noisy warnings from GCC 9" * tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: arm64: Silence gcc warnings about arch ABI drift ARM64: trivial: s/TIF_SECOMP/TIF_SECCOMP/ comment typo fix arm64: arch_timer: mark functions as __always_inline arm64: smp: Moved cpu_logical_map[] to smp.h arm64: cpufeature: Fix missing ZFR0 in __read_sysreg_by_encoding()

arm64: Silence gcc warnings about arch ABI drift

2019-06-06T12:28:45+00:00

Since GCC 9, the compiler warns about evolution of the platform-specific ABI, in particular relating for the marshaling of certain structures involving bitfields. The kernel is a standalone binary, and of course nobody would be so stupid as to expose structs containing bitfields as function arguments in ABI. (Passing a pointer to such a struct, however inadvisable, should be unaffected by this change. perf and various drivers rely on that.) So these warnings do more harm than good: turn them off. We may miss warnings about future ABI drift, but that's too bad. Future ABI breaks of this class will have to be debugged and fixed the traditional way unless the compiler evolves finer-grained diagnostics. Signed-off-by: Dave Martin Signed-off-by: Will Deacon
