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.

The check for an MCE being a memory error in the NFIT mce handler was
bogus. Use the new mce_is_memory_error() helper to detect the error
properly.

Export the function which checks whether an MCE is a memory error to
other users so that we can reuse the logic. Drop the boot_cpu_data use,
while at it, as mce.cpuvendor already has the CPU vendor in there.
Integrate a piece from a patch from Vishal Verma
<vishal.l.verma@intel.com> to export it for modules (nfit).
The main reason we're exporting it is that the nfit handler
nfit_handle_mce() needs to detect a memory error properly before doing
its recovery actions.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix a bug caused by not cleaning up the new instance unique triggers
when deleting an instance. It also creates a selftest that triggers
that bug.
- Fix the delayed optimization happening after kprobes boot up self
tests being removed by freeing of init memory.
- Comment kprobes on why the delay optimization is not a problem for
removal of modules, to keep other developers from searching that
riddle.
- Fix another case of rcu not watching in stack trace tracing.
* tag 'trace-v4.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
tracing: Make sure RCU is watching before calling a stack trace
kprobes: Document how optimized kprobes are removed from module unload
selftests/ftrace: Add test to remove instance with active event triggers
selftests/ftrace: Fix bashisms
ftrace: Remove #ifdef from code and add clear_ftrace_function_probes() stub
ftrace/instances: Clear function triggers when removing instances
ftrace: Simplify glob handling in unregister_ftrace_function_probe_func()
tracing/kprobes: Enforce kprobes teardown after testing
tracing: Move postpone selftests to core from early_initcall
Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A small collection of fixes that should go into this cycle.
- a pull request from Christoph for NVMe, which ended up being
manually applied to avoid pulling in newer bits in master. Mostly
fibre channel fixes from James, but also a few fixes from Jon and
Vijay
- a pull request from Konrad, with just a single fix for xen-blkback
from Gustavo.
- a fuseblk bdi fix from Jan, fixing a regression in this series with
the dynamic backing devices.
- a blktrace fix from Shaohua, replacing sscanf() with kstrtoull().
- a request leak fix for drbd from Lars, fixing a regression in the
last series with the kref changes. This will go to stable as well"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
nvmet: release the sq ref on rdma read errors
nvmet-fc: remove target cpu scheduling flag
nvme-fc: stop queues on error detection
nvme-fc: require target or discovery role for fc-nvme targets
nvme-fc: correct port role bits
nvme: unmap CMB and remove sysfs file in reset path
blktrace: fix integer parse
fuseblk: Fix warning in super_setup_bdi_name()
block: xen-blkback: add null check to avoid null pointer dereference
drbd: fix request leak introduced by locking/atomic, kref: Kill kref_sub()
As stack tracing now requires "rcu watching", force RCU to be watching when
recording a stack trace.

On rdma read errors, release the sq ref that was taken
when the req was initialized. This avoids a hang in
nvmet_sq_destroy() when the queue is being freed.

Thomas discovered a bug where the kprobe trace tests had a race
condition where the kprobe_optimizer called from a delayed work queue
that does the optimizing and "unoptimizing" of a kprobe, can try to
modify the text after it has been freed by the init code.
The kprobe trace selftest is a special case, and Thomas and myself
investigated to see if there's a chance that this could also be a bug
with module unloading, as the code is not obvious to how it handles
this. After adding lots of printks, I figured it out. Thomas suggested
that this should be commented so that others will not have to go
through this exercise again.
