KVM/s390, KVM/x86 and common infrastructure changes for 5.20 x86: * Permit guests to ignore single-bit ECC errors * Fix races in gfn->pfn cache refresh; do not pin pages tracked by the cache * Intel IPI virtualization * Allow getting/setting pending triple fault with KVM_GET/SET_VCPU_EVENTS * PEBS virtualization * Simplify PMU emulation by just using PERF_TYPE_RAW events * More accurate event reinjection on SVM (avoid retrying instructions) * Allow getting/setting the state of the speaker port data bit * Refuse starting the kvm-intel module if VM-Entry/VM-Exit controls are inconsistent * "Notify" VM exit (detect microarchitectural hangs) for Intel * Cleanups for MCE MSR emulation s390: * add an interface to provide a hypervisor dump for secure guests * improve selftests to use TAP interface * enable interpretive execution of zPCI instructions (for PCI passthrough) * First part of deferred teardown * CPU Topology * PV attestation * Minor fixes Generic: * new selftests API using struct kvm_vcpu instead of a (vm, id) tuple x86: * Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64 * Bugfixes * Ignore benign host accesses to PMU MSRs when PMU is disabled * Allow disabling KVM's "MONITOR/MWAIT are NOPs!" behavior * x86/MMU: Allow NX huge pages to be disabled on a per-vm basis * Port eager page splitting to shadow MMU as well * Enable CMCI capability by default and handle injected UCNA errors * Expose pid of vcpu threads in debugfs * x2AVIC support for AMD * cleanup PIO emulation * Fixes for LLDT/LTR emulation * Don't require refcounted "struct page" to create huge SPTEs x86 cleanups: * Use separate namespaces for guest PTEs and shadow PTEs bitmasks * PIO emulation * Reorganize rmap API, mostly around rmap destruction * Do not workaround very old KVM bugs for L0 that runs with nesting enabled * new selftests API for CPUID
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.
