Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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 x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A set of three patches to fix the fallout of the newly added split lock detection feature. It addressed the case where a KVM guest triggers a split lock #AC and KVM reinjects it into the guest which is not prepared to handle it. Add proper sanity checks which prevent the unconditional injection into the guest and handles the #AC on the host side in the same way as user space detections are handled. Depending on the detection mode it either warns and disables detection for the task or kills the task if the mode is set to fatal" * tag 'x86-urgent-2020-04-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: KVM: VMX: Extend VMXs #AC interceptor to handle split lock #AC in guest KVM: x86: Emulate split-lock access as a write in emulator x86/split_lock: Provide handle_guest_split_lock()
