KVM selftests changes for 6.15, part 1
- Misc cleanups and prep work.
- Annotate _no_printf() with "printf" so that pr_debug() statements are
checked by the compiler for default builds (and pr_info() when QUIET).
- Attempt to whack the last LLC references/misses mole in the Intel PMU
counters test by adding a data load and doing CLFLUSH{OPT} on the data
instead of the code being executed. The theory is that modern Intel CPUs
have learned new code prefetching tricks that bypass the PMU counters.
- Fix a flaw in the Intel PMU counters test where it asserts that an event is
counting correctly without actually knowing what the event counts on the
underlying hardware.
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 reStructuredText 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.
