This file was removed, and another file was added instead of it, on two separate commits. Splitting a single logical change (doc conversion) on two patches is a bad thing, as it makes harder to discover what crap happened. Anyway, this patch fixes the broken reference, making it pointing to the new location of the file. Fixes: 92200373 ("dt-bindings: phy: Remove Cadence MHDP PHY dt binding") Fixes: c6d8eef38b7f ("dt-bindings: phy: Add Cadence MHDP PHY bindings in YAML format.")

The building system can auto-generate a list of documents since commit: 9d42afbe ("docs: pdf: add all Documentation/*/index.rst to PDF output"). The added logic there allows keeping the existing list, but there's not real reason to keep it. Now, the media document has gone (it was split into tree). So, it sounds about time to get rid of the manual entries, and let the script to generate it automatically instead.

There are some docs that have nested tables. While this was always part of the spec, only Sphinx version 2.4.x can translate it to LaTeX. In other words, if someone is using a Sphinx version < 2.4, the LaTeX and PDF output won't work for some of the docs. So, it seems that it is time to raise the bar again for the recommented version. The Sphinx check script is already smart enough to keep working, with older versions, warning the users that an upgrade is recommended (and explaining how): Sphinx version 1.7.9 Warning: It is recommended at least Sphinx version 2.4.4.

Sphinx is very pedantic with respect to blank lines. Sometimes, in order to make it to properly handle something, we need to add a blank line. However, currently, any blank line inside a kernel-doc comment like: /* * @foo: bar * * foobar * * some description will be considered as if "foobar" was part of the description. This patch changes kernel-doc behavior. After it, foobar will be considered as part of the parameter text. The description will only be considered as such if it starts with: zero spaces after asterisk: *foo one space after asterisk: * foo or have a explicit Description section: * Description: Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/c07d2862792d75a2691d69c9eceb7b89a0164cc0.1586881715.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

On a few places, it sometimes need to indicate a negation of a parameter, like: !@fshared This pattern happens, for example, at: kernel/futex.c and it is perfectly valid. However, kernel-doc currently transforms it into: !**fshared** This won't do what it would be expected. Fortunately, fixing the script is a simple matter of storing the "!" before "@" and adding it after the bold markup, like: **!fshared** Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/0314b47f8c3e1f9db00d5375a73dc3cddd8a21f2.1586881715.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

The pattern @foo->bar() is valid, as it can be used by a function pointer inside a struct passed as a parameter. Right now, it causes a warning: ./drivers/firewire/core-transaction.c:606: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string. In this specific case, the kernel-doc markup is: /** * fw_core_remove_address_handler() - unregister an address handler * @handler: callback * * To be called in process context. * * When fw_core_remove_address_handler() returns, @handler->callback() is * guaranteed to not run on any CPU anymore. */ With seems valid on my eyes. So, instead of trying to hack the kernel-doc markup, let's teach it about how to handle such things. This should likely remove lots of other similar warnings as well.

Since python 3.3, the recommended way to setup a virtual env is via "python -m venv". Set this as a default, if python version is compatible with such feature.

When kernel-doc generates a 'c:function' directive for a function one of whose arguments is a function pointer, it fails to print the close-paren after the argument list of the function pointer argument. For instance: long work_on_cpu(int cpu, long (*fn) (void *, void * arg) in driver-api/basics.html is missing a ')' separating the "void *" of the 'fn' arguments from the ", void * arg" which is an argument to work_on_cpu(). Add the missing close-paren, so that we render the prototype correctly: long work_on_cpu(int cpu, long (*fn)(void *), void * arg) (Note that Sphinx stops rendering a space between the '(fn*)' and the '(void *)' once it gets something that's syntactically valid.)

This sorts the actual field names too, potentially causing even more chaos and confusion at merge time if you have edited the MAINTAINERS file. But the end result is a more consistent layout, and hopefully it's a one-time pain minimized by doing this just before the -rc1 release.

They are all supposed to be sorted, but people who add new entries don't always know the alphabet. Plus sometimes the entry names get edited, and people don't then re-order the entry. Let's see how painful this will be for merging purposes (the MAINTAINERS file is often edited in various different trees), but Joe claims there's relatively few patches in -next that touch this, and doing it just before -rc1 is likely the best time. Fingers crossed. This was scripted with /scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS but then I also ended up manually upper-casing a few entry names that stood out when looking at the end result.

Emulate split-lock accesses as writes if split lock detection is on to avoid #AC during emulation, which will result in a panic(). This should never occur for a well-behaved guest, but a malicious guest can manipulate the TLB to trigger emulation of a locked instruction[1]. More discussion can be found at [2][3].

Without at least minimal handling for split lock detection induced #AC, VMX will just run into the same problem as the VMWare hypervisor, which was reported by Kenneth. It will inject the #AC blindly into the guest whether the guest is prepared or not. Provide a function for guest mode which acts depending on the host SLD mode. If mode == sld_warn, treat it like user space, i.e. emit a warning, disable SLD and mark the task accordingly. Otherwise force SIGBUS.
