Pull virtio-mem update from David Hildenbrand: "Support the VIRTIO_MEM_F_UNPLUGGED_INACCESSIBLE feature in virtio-mem, now that "accidential" access to logically unplugged memory inside added Linux memory blocks is no longer possible, because we: - Removed /dev/kmem in commitbbcd53c960("drivers/char: remove /dev/kmem for good") - Disallowed access to virtio-mem device memory via /dev/mem in commit2128f4e21a("virtio-mem: disallow mapping virtio-mem memory via /dev/mem") - Sanitized access to virtio-mem device memory via /proc/kcore in commit0daa322b8f("fs/proc/kcore: don't read offline sections, logically offline pages and hwpoisoned pages") - Sanitized access to virtio-mem device memory via /proc/vmcore in commitce2814622e("virtio-mem: kdump mode to sanitize /proc/vmcore access") The new VIRTIO_MEM_F_UNPLUGGED_INACCESSIBLE feature that will be required by some hypervisors implementing virtio-mem in the near future, so let's support it now that we safely can" * tag 'virtio-mem-for-5.16' of git://github.com/davidhildenbrand/linux: virtio-mem: support VIRTIO_MEM_F_UNPLUGGED_INACCESSIBLE
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.
