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 intention is to return negative error codes. "pid" is already
negative but we accidentally negate it again back to positive.

Pull more input updates from Dmitry Torokhov:
"A second round of updates for the input subsystem:
- a new driver for PWM-controlled vibrators
- ucb1400 touchscreen driver had completely busted suspend/resume
handling
- we now handle "home" button found on some devices with Goodix
touchscreens
- assorted other fixups"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dtor/input:
Input: i8042 - add Gigabyte P57 to the keyboard reset table
Input: xpad - validate USB endpoint type during probe
Input: ucb1400_ts - fix suspend and resume handling
Input: edt-ft5x06 - fix access to non-existing register
Input: elantech - make arrays debounce_packet static, reduces object code size
Input: surface3_spi - make const array header static, reduces object code size
Input: goodix - add support for capacitive home button
Input: add a driver for PWM controllable vibrators
Input: adi - make array seq static, reduces object code size
The driver doesn't support events from address families other than IPv4
and IPv6, so ignore them. Otherwise, we risk queueing a work item before
it's initialized.
This can happen in case a VRF is configured when MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES
is enabled, as the VRF driver will try to add an l3mdev rule for the
IPMR family.

Commit 5620a0d1aac ("firmware: delete in-kernel firmware") removed the
entire firmware directory. Unfortunately it thereby also removed the
support for built-in firmware.
This restores the ability to build firmware directly into the kernel by
pruning the original Makefile to the necessary minimum. The default for
EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR is now the standard directory /lib/firmware/.
