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.

We currently copy the physical address size from ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.PARange directly into TCR.(I)PS. This will not work for 4k and 16k granule kernels on systems that support 52-bit physical addresses, since 52-bit addresses are only permitted with the 64k granule. To fix this, fall back to 48 bits when configuring the PA size when the kernel does not support 52-bit PAs. When it does, fall back to 52, to avoid similar problems in the future if the PA size is ever increased above 52. Tested-by:Suzuki K Poulose <suzuki.poulose@arm.com> Reviewed-by:
