Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.

Pull two parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
"One fix to avoid usage of BITS_PER_LONG in user-space exported swab.h
header which breaks compiling qemu, and one trivial fix for printk
continuation in the parisc parport driver"
* 'parisc-4.10-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux:
parisc: Don't use BITS_PER_LONG in userspace-exported swab.h header
parisc, parport_gsc: Fixes for printk continuation lines
Pull i2c fixes from Wolfram Sang:
"Two I2C driver bugfixes.
The 'VLLS mode support' patch should have been entitled 'reconfigure
pinctrl after suspend' to make the bugfix more clear. Sorry, I missed
that, yet didn't want to rebase"
* 'i2c/for-current' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wsa/linux:
i2c: imx-lpi2c: add VLLS mode support
i2c: i2c-cadence: Initialize configuration before probing devices
In swab.h the "#if BITS_PER_LONG > 32" breaks compiling userspace programs if
BITS_PER_LONG is #defined by userspace with the sizeof() compiler builtin.
Solve this problem by using __BITS_PER_LONG instead. Since we now
#include asm/bitsperlong.h avoid further potential userspace pollution
by moving the #define of SHIFT_PER_LONG to bitops.h which is not
exported to userspace.
This patch unbreaks compiling qemu on hppa/parisc.

Pull NFS client bugfixes from Trond Myklebust:
"Stable patches:
- NFSv4.1: Fix a deadlock in layoutget
- NFSv4 must not bump sequence ids on NFS4ERR_MOVED errors
- NFSv4 Fix a regression with OPEN EXCLUSIVE4 mode
- Fix a memory leak when removing the SUNRPC module
Bugfixes:
- Fix a reference leak in _pnfs_return_layout"
* tag 'nfs-for-4.10-4' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs:
pNFS: Fix a reference leak in _pnfs_return_layout
nfs: Fix "Don't increment lock sequence ID after NFS4ERR_MOVED"
SUNRPC: cleanup ida information when removing sunrpc module
NFSv4.0: always send mode in SETATTR after EXCLUSIVE4
nfs: Don't increment lock sequence ID after NFS4ERR_MOVED
NFSv4.1: Fix a deadlock in layoutget
When system enters VLLS mode, module power is turned off. As a result,
all registers are reset to HW default value. After exiting VLLS mode,
registers are still in default mode. As a result, the pinctrl settings
are incorrect, which will affect the module function.
The patch recovers the pinctrl setting when exit VLLS mode.

Pull MD fixes from Shaohua Li:
"This fixes several corner cases for raid5 cache, which is merged into
this cycle"
* tag 'md/4.10-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shli/md:
md/r5cache: disable write back for degraded array
md/r5cache: shift complex rmw from read path to write path

md/raid5-cache: delete meaningless code
IF NFS_LAYOUT_RETURN_REQUESTED is not set, then we currently exit
without freeing the list of invalidated layout segments, leading
to a reference leak.

The cadence I2C driver calls cdns_i2c_writereg(..) to setup a workaround
in the controller, but did so after calling i2c_add_adapter() which starts
probing devices on the bus. Change the order so that the configuration is
completely finished before using the adapter.

Pull arm64 fix from Catalin Marinas:
"Fix kernel panic on ACPI-based systems where CPU capacity description
is not currently handled"
* tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux:
arm64: skip register_cpufreq_notifier on ACPI-based systems
write-back cache in degraded mode introduces corner cases to the array.
Although we try to cover all these corner cases, it is safer to just
disable write-back cache when the array is in degraded mode.
In this patch, we disable writeback cache for degraded mode:
1. On device failure, if the array enters degraded mode, raid5_error()
will submit async job r5c_disable_writeback_async to disable
writeback;
2. In r5c_journal_mode_store(), it is invalid to enable writeback in
degraded mode;
3. In r5c_try_caching_write(), stripes with s->failed>0 will be handled
in write-through mode.

Lock sequence IDs are bumped in decode_lock by calling
nfs_increment_seqid(). nfs_increment_sequid() does not use the
seqid_mutating_err() function fixed in commit 059aa7348241 ("Don't
increment lock sequence ID after NFS4ERR_MOVED").
