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 irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for the interrupt subsystem:
Core:
- Move the interrupt affinity spreading mechanism into lib/group_cpus
so it can be used for similar spreading requirements, e.g. in the
block multi-queue code
This also contains a first usecase in the block multi-queue code
which Jens asked to take along with the librarization
- Improve irqdomain locking to close a number race conditions which
can be observed with massive parallel device driver probing
- Enforce and document the semantics of disable_irq() which cannot be
invoked safely from non-sleepable context
- Move the IPI multiplexing code from the Apple AIC driver into the
core, so it can be reused by RISCV
Drivers:
- Plug OF node refcounting leaks in various drivers
- Correctly mark level triggered interrupts in the Broadcom L2
drivers
- The usual small fixes and improvements
- No new drivers for the record!"
