2020-06-01Merge tag 'docs-5.8' of git://git.lwn.net/linuxLinus Torvalds
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "A fair amount of stuff this time around, dominated by yet another massive set from Mauro toward the completion of the RST conversion. I *really* hope we are getting close to the end of this. Meanwhile, those patches reach pretty far afield to update document references around the tree; there should be no actual code changes there. There will be, alas, more of the usual trivial merge conflicts. Beyond that we have more translations, improvements to the sphinx scripting, a number of additions to the sysctl documentation, and lots of fixes" * tag 'docs-5.8' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (130 commits) Documentation: fixes to the maintainer-entry-profile template zswap: docs/vm: Fix typo accept_threshold_percent in zswap.rst tracing: Fix events.rst section numbering docs: acpi: fix old http link and improve document format docs: filesystems: add info about efivars content Documentation: LSM: Correct the basic LSM description mailmap: change email for Ricardo Ribalda docs: sysctl/kernel: document unaligned controls Documentation: admin-guide: update bug-hunting.rst docs: sysctl/kernel: document ngroups_max nvdimm: fixes to maintainter-entry-profile Documentation/features: Correct RISC-V kprobes support entry Documentation/features: Refresh the arch support status files Revert "docs: sysctl/kernel: document ngroups_max" docs: move locking-specific documents to locking/ docs: move digsig docs to the security book docs: move the kref doc into the core-api book docs: add IRQ documentation at the core-api book docs: debugging-via-ohci1394.txt: add it to the core-api book docs: fix references for ipmi.rst file ...
2020-04-28arm64: docs: Mandate that the I-cache doesn't hold stale kernel textWill Deacon
Although we require that the loaded kernel Image has been cleaned to the PoC, we neglect to spell out the state of the I-cache. Although this should be reasonably obvious, it doesn't hurt to be explicit. Require that the I-cache doesn't hold any stale entries for the kernel Image at boot.

2020-04-20docs: arm64: booting.rst: get rid of some warningsMauro Carvalho Chehab
Get rid of those warnings: Documentation/arm64/booting.rst:253: WARNING: Unexpected indentation. Documentation/arm64/booting.rst:259: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent. By adding an extra blank lines where needed. While here, use list markups on some places, as otherwise Sphinx will consider the next lines as continuation of the privious ones.

2019-10-15arm64: Document ICC_CTLR_EL3.PMHE setting requirementsMarc Zyngier
It goes without saying, but better saying it: the kernel expects ICC_CTLR_EL3.PMHE to have the same value across all CPUs, and for that setting not to change during the lifetime of the kernel. Signed-off-by: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux Pull Devicetree updates from Rob Herring: - DT binding schema examples are now validated against the schemas. Various examples are fixed due to that. - Sync dtc with upstream version v1.5.0-30-g702c1b6c0e73 - Initial schemas for networking bindings. This includes ethernet, phy and mdio common bindings with several Allwinner and stmmac converted to the schema. - Conversion of more Arm top-level SoC/board bindings to DT schema - Conversion of PSCI binding to DT schema - Rework Arm CPU schema to coexist with other CPU schemas - Add a bunch of missing vendor prefixes and new ones for SoChip, Sipeed, Kontron, B&R Industrial Automation GmbH, and Espressif - Add Mediatek UART RX wakeup support to binding - Add reset to ST UART binding - Remove some Linuxisms from the endianness common-properties.txt binding - Make the flattened DT read-only after init - Ignore disabled reserved memory nodes - Clean-up some dead code in FDT functions * tag 'devicetree-for-5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux: (56 commits) dt-bindings: vendor-prefixes: add Sipeed dt-bindings: vendor-prefixes: add SoChip dt-bindings: 83xx-512x-pci: Drop cell-index property dt-bindings: serial: add documentation for Rx in-band wakeup support dt-bindings: arm: Convert RDA Micro board/soc bindings to json-schema of: unittest: simplify getting the adapter of a client of/fdt: pass early_init_dt_reserve_memory_arch() with bool type nomap of/platform: Drop superfluous cast in of_device_make_bus_id() dt-bindings: usb: ehci: Fix example warnings dt-bindings: net: Use phy-mode instead of phy-connection-type dt-bindings: simple-framebuffer: Add requirement for pipelines dt-bindings: display: Fix simple-framebuffer example dt-bindings: net: mdio: Add child nodes dt-bindings: net: mdio: Add address and size cells dt-bindings: net: mdio: Add a nodename pattern dt-bindings: mtd: sunxi-nand: Drop 'maxItems' from child 'reg' property dt-bindings: arm: Limit cpus schema to only check Arm 'cpu' nodes dt-bindings: backlight: lm3630a: correct schema validation dt-bindings: net: dwmac: Deprecate the PHY reset properties dt-bindings: net: sun8i-emac: Convert the binding to a schemas ...
2019-06-14docs: arm64: convert docs to ReST and rename to .rstMauro Carvalho Chehab
The documentation is in a format that is very close to ReST format. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines in order to identify paragraphs; - fixing tables markups; - adding some lists markups; - marking literal blocks; - adjust some title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
