Linus Torvalds 3ca112b71f Probes fixes for v6.7-rc1:
- Documentation update: Add a note about argument and return value
    fetching is the best effort because it depends on the type.
 
  - objpool: Fix to make internal global variables static in
    test_objpool.c.
 
  - kprobes: Unify kprobes_exceptions_nofify() prototypes. There are
    the same prototypes in asm/kprobes.h for some architectures, but
    some of them are missing the prototype and it causes a warning.
    So move the prototype into linux/kprobes.h.
 
  - tracing: Fix to check the tracepoint event and return event at
    parsing stage. The tracepoint event doesn't support %return
    but if $retval exists, it will be converted to %return silently.
    This finds that case and rejects it.
 
  - tracing: Fix the order of the descriptions about the parameters
    of __kprobe_event_gen_cmd_start() to be consistent with the
    argument list of the function.

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.
