Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: "One notable fix for our change to split pt_regs between user/kernel, we forgot to update BPF to use the user-visible type which was an ABI break for BPF programs. A slightly ugly but minimal fix to do_syscall_trace_enter() so that we use tracehook_report_syscall_entry() properly. We'll rework the code in next to avoid the empty if body. Seven commits fixing bugs in the new papr_scm (Storage Class Memory) driver. The driver was finally able to be tested on the other hypervisor which exposed several bugs. The fixes are all fairly minimal at least. Fix a crash in our MSI code if an MSI-capable device is plugged into a non-MSI capable PHB, only seen on older hardware (MPC8378). Fix our legacy serial code to look for "stdout-path" since the device trees were updated to use that instead of "linux,stdout-path". A change to the COFF zImage code to fix booting old powermacs. A couple of minor build fixes. Thanks to: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, Daniel Axtens, Dmitry V. Levin, Elvira Khabirova, Oliver O'Halloran, Paul Mackerras, Radu Rendec, Rob Herring, Sandipan Das" * tag 'powerpc-4.20-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux: powerpc/ptrace: replace ptrace_report_syscall() with a tracehook call powerpc/mm: Fallback to RAM if the altmap is unusable powerpc/papr_scm: Use ibm,unit-guid as the iset cookie powerpc/papr_scm: Fix DIMM device registration race powerpc/papr_scm: Remove endian conversions powerpc/papr_scm: Update DT properties powerpc/papr_scm: Fix resource end address powerpc/papr_scm: Use depend instead of select powerpc/bpf: Fix broken uapi for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT powerpc/boot: Fix build failures with -j 1 powerpc: Look for "stdout-path" when setting up legacy consoles powerpc/msi: Fix NULL pointer access in teardown code powerpc/mm: Fix linux page tables build with some configs powerpc: Fix COFF zImage booting on old powermacs
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.
