Pull RISC-V updates from Paul Walmsley: - Hugepage support - "Image" header support for RISC-V kernel binaries, compatible with the current ARM64 "Image" header - Initial page table setup now split into two stages - CONFIG_SOC support (starting with SiFive SoCs) - Avoid reserving memory between RAM start and the kernel in setup_bootmem() - Enable high-res timers and dynamic tick in the RV64 defconfig - Remove long-deprecated gate area stubs - MAINTAINERS updates to switch to the newly-created shared RISC-V git tree, and to fix a get_maintainers.pl issue for patches involving SiFive E-mail addresses Also, one integration fix to resolve a build problem introduced during in the v5.3-rc1 merge window: - Fix build break after macro-to-function conversion in asm-generic/cacheflush.h * tag 'riscv/for-v5.3-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux: riscv: fix build break after macro-to-function conversion in generic cacheflush.h RISC-V: Add an Image header that boot loader can parse. RISC-V: Setup initial page tables in two stages riscv: remove free_initrd_mem riscv: ccache: Remove unused variable riscv: Introduce huge page support for 32/64bit kernel x86, arm64: Move ARCH_WANT_HUGE_PMD_SHARE config in arch/Kconfig RISC-V: Fix memory reservation in setup_bootmem() riscv: defconfig: enable SOC_SIFIVE riscv: select SiFive platform drivers with SOC_SIFIVE arch: riscv: add config option for building SiFive's SoC resource riscv: Remove gate area stubs MAINTAINERS: change the arch/riscv git tree to the new shared tree MAINTAINERS: don't automatically patches involving SiFive to the linux-riscv list RISC-V: defconfig: Enable NO_HZ_IDLE and HIGH_RES_TIMERS
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.
