Pull IDR rewrite from Matthew Wilcox: "The most significant part of the following is the patch to rewrite the IDR & IDA to be clients of the radix tree. But there's much more, including an enhancement of the IDA to be significantly more space efficient, an IDR & IDA test suite, some improvements to the IDR API (and driver changes to take advantage of those improvements), several improvements to the radix tree test suite and RCU annotations. The IDR & IDA rewrite had a good spin in linux-next and Andrew's tree for most of the last cycle. Coupled with the IDR test suite, I feel pretty confident that any remaining bugs are quite hard to hit. 0-day did a great job of watching my git tree and pointing out problems; as it hit them, I added new test-cases to be sure not to be caught the same way twice" Willy goes on to expand a bit on the IDR rewrite rationale: "The radix tree and the IDR use very similar data structures. Merging the two codebases lets us share the memory allocation pools, and results in a net deletion of 500 lines of code. It also opens up the possibility of exposing more of the features of the radix tree to users of the IDR (and I have some interesting patches along those lines waiting for 4.12) It also shrinks the size of the 'struct idr' from 40 bytes to 24 which will shrink a fair few data structures that embed an IDR" * 'idr-4.11' of git://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax: (32 commits) radix tree test suite: Add config option for map shift idr: Add missing __rcu annotations radix-tree: Fix __rcu annotations radix-tree: Add rcu_dereference and rcu_assign_pointer calls radix tree test suite: Run iteration tests for longer radix tree test suite: Fix split/join memory leaks radix tree test suite: Fix leaks in regression2.c radix tree test suite: Fix leaky tests radix tree test suite: Enable address sanitizer radix_tree_iter_resume: Fix out of bounds error radix-tree: Store a pointer to the root in each node radix-tree: Chain preallocated nodes through ->parent radix tree test suite: Dial down verbosity with -v radix tree test suite: Introduce kmalloc_verbose idr: Return the deleted entry from idr_remove radix tree test suite: Build separate binaries for some tests ida: Use exceptional entries for small IDAs ida: Move ida_bitmap to a percpu variable Reimplement IDR and IDA using the radix tree radix-tree: Add radix_tree_iter_delete ... |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
