It should be 10KHz, matching the ARCH_TIMER_EVT_STREAM_PERIOD_US of
100us.
Note that this is only a documentation bug.

Memory Tagging Extension (part of the ARMv8.5 Extensions) provides
a mechanism to detect the sources of memory related errors which
may be vulnerable to exploitation, including bounds violations,
use-after-free, use-after-return, use-out-of-scope and use before
initialization errors.
Add Memory Tagging Extension documentation for the arm64 linux
kernel support.

This patch adds the bare minimum required to expose the ARMv8.5
Branch Target Identification feature to userspace.
By itself, this does _not_ automatically enable BTI for any initial
executable pages mapped by execve(). This will come later, but for
now it should be possible to enable BTI manually on those pages by
using mprotect() from within the target process.
Other arches already using the generic mman.h are already using
0x10 for arch-specific prot flags, so we use that for PROT_BTI
here.
For consistency, signal handler entry points in BTI guarded pages
are required to be annotated as such, just like any other function.
This blocks a relatively minor attack vector, but comforming
userspace will have the annotations anyway, so we may as well
enforce them.

Expose the ID_AA64ISAR0.RNDR field to userspace, as the RNG system
registers are always available at EL0.
Implement arch_get_random_seed_long using RNDR. Given that the
TRNG is likely to be a shared resource between cores, and VMs,
do not explicitly force re-seeding with RNDRRS. In order to avoid
code complexity and potential issues with hetrogenous systems only
provide values after cpufeature has finalized the system capabilities.

Export the features introduced as part of ARMv8.6 exposed in the
ID_AA64ISAR1_EL1 and ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 registers. This introduces the
Matrix features (ARMv8.2-I8MM, ARMv8.2-F64MM and ARMv8.2-F32MM) along

All the hardware capabilities but HWCAP_SB is not documented in

Part of the hardware capabilities documented in elf_hwcap.rst are
ordered following the definition in the header
arch/arm64/include/uapi/asm/hwcap.h but others seems to be documented
in random order.
To make easier to match against the definition in the header, they are
now sorted in the same order as they are defined in header. I.e.,
HWCAP first by ascending value, and then HWCAP2 in the similar fashion.

- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more
than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other
trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on the wings
that, I think, will go to you directly later on.
- A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one
on Spectre vulnerabilities.
- Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of
function() references because some people, for reasons I will never
understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is
unattractive and not fun to type.
- We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4.
- Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc.

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.
