mainlining shenanigans
These patches primarily make some usercopy improvements (following on from the recent usercopy fixes): - Reformat and simplify rapf copy loops - Add 64-bit get_user support And fix a couple more uaccess issues, partily pointed out by Al: - Fix access_ok() serious shortcomings - Fix strncpy_from_user() address validation Also included is a trivial removal of a redundant increment. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCAAdFiEEd80NauSabkiESfLYbAtpk944dnoFAlkTHcQACgkQbAtpk944 dnqkXA//fGEeZbGIN61EUk5YI2oc+66if/whvyhM18U9sZZauGCN+PzIP9f/4S7K YP2fnXpjpyKsIo88afsVf3rPfAeGEBE7JItASbcflcfAquv1Hz86exbg4uxUA/+m rI+8+ZPM3RsQxF0WNgvL4c4xbv3jmvSZ7Qk9rzzkSXdxxDjArSGPApZN5qWM2ih2 akLJ/ybWdXyP65Z/E1vvd3IM6H15+fe4ajPcconM8b5J/zxrtgNxYuAXsUnhOBIj aDzeX4UV9xdlZW1dHz3rIqPiJWRV1dlSiCXqncqh9kA9ma7p21CQPCGHLG+DUtRY 8RC4z6dluCMfymQZ0P20NZrk/LcOWmwgtVhXVVhoWNoWwqwuFv67LbQK0lD+16D4 4ydcTlEUiLQo7kLo2wFf8+/F18m/m5f/rOjRlHZB/lG4hoTTtb1vt0V03VWpXWTf /Tvbhmya+/+KovzOW3ye+7cqdR0+UKTPg8d19Qn71bSoaY1toFoBBdmzST7CK8IL JrLuTgCh+LJiyg13OpwgbSPRY1ybYvan6Gev4aIicHbbvAy2ZQ4UMJmWDi/v9E3C tee+QMXMgbkpKj3w4qQYNNuv2D4EWoeX3PA+ypeB0kFFcIi6eWqHCFUJ+TnaIr/K nfwQnMBKa63nKy3vJrbYrEIDK/S20WZlJ3tL37wVMA763YZV62A= =c80X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'metag-for-v4.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jhogan/metag Pull metag updates from James Hogan: "These patches primarily make some usercopy improvements (following on from the recent usercopy fixes): - reformat and simplify rapf copy loops - add 64-bit get_user support And fix a couple more uaccess issues, partily pointed out by Al: - fix access_ok() serious shortcomings - fix strncpy_from_user() address validation Also included is a trivial removal of a redundant increment" * tag 'metag-for-v4.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jhogan/metag: metag/mm: Drop pointless increment metag/uaccess: Check access_ok in strncpy_from_user metag/uaccess: Fix access_ok() metag/usercopy: Add 64-bit get_user support metag/usercopy: Simplify rapf loop fixup corner case metag/usercopy: Reformat rapf loop inline asm |

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.
