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.

Please pull in your 'for-linus' branch two little fixes for Xen
block front:
One fix is for handling the XEN_PAGE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE (4KB vs 64KB
on ARM for example) mishandling while the other is fixing
the accounting for the configuration changes.
This patch reverts commit f80de881d8df and avoids that sending a
WRITE SAME command to the iSCSI initiator triggers the following:

Making use of "max_indirect_segments=" has issues:
- blkfront_setup_indirect() may end up with zero psegs when PAGE_SIZE
is sufficiently much larger than XEN_PAGE_SIZE
- the variable driven by the command line option
(xen_blkif_max_segments) has a somewhat different purpose, and hence
should namely never end up being zero
- as long as the specified value is lower than the legacy default,
we better don't use indirect segments at all (or we'd in fact lower
throughput)

Pull nvme target fixes from Sagi:
Given that its -rc6, I removed anything that is not
bug fix.
- nvmet-fc discard fix from Christoph
- queue disconnect fix from James
- nvmet-rdma dma sync fix from Parav
- Some more nvmet fixes
Don't truncate the "feature-persistent" value read from xenstore: Any
non-zero value is supposed to enable the feature, just like is already
being done for feature_secdiscard.
Just like the other feature_* fields, feature_flush and feature_fua are
boolean flags, and hence fit well into a single bit.
Keep all bit fields together to limit gaps.

We can't dereference the dio structure after submitting the last bio for
this request, as I/O completion might have happened before the code is
run. Introduce a local is_sync variable instead.

A user noticed that write performance was horrible over loopback and we
traced it to an inversion of when we need to set MSG_MORE. It should be
set when we have more bvec's to send, not when we are on the last bvec.
This patch made the test go from 20 iops to 78k iops.

Pull tile bugfix from Chris Metcalf:
"This avoids an issue with short userspace reads for regset via ptrace"
* 'stable' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
tile/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
This patch performs dma sync operations on nvme_command
and nvme_completion.
nvme_command is synced
(a) on receiving of the recv queue completion for cpu access.
(b) before posting recv wqe back to rdma adapter for device access.
nvme_completion is synced
(a) on receiving of the recv queue completion of associated
nvme_command for cpu access.
(b) before posting send wqe to rdma adapter for device access.

"A single lockdep fix, nothing else going on. This makes lockdep
noiseless and work properly with threaded GPIO IRQchips.
Summary:
Fix a lockdep issue: the threaded irqchips also need their unique key,
and take this opportunity to get rid of the horrible macro and replace
it with a static inline"
* tag 'gpio-v4.10-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio:
gpio: provide lockdep keys for nested/unnested irqchips
Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to
PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old
registers are preserved.
