The contact point for the kernel's Code of Conduct should now be the
Code of Conduct Committee, not the full TAB. Change the email address
in the file to properly reflect this.

The Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct is a general document meant to
provide a set of rules for almost any open source community. Every
open-source community is unique and the Linux kernel is no exception.
Because of this, this document describes how we in the Linux kernel
community will interpret it. We also do not expect this interpretation
to be static over time, and will adjust it as needed.
This document was created with the input and feedback of the TAB as well
as many current kernel maintainers.

As it was originally worded, this paragraph requires maintainers to
enforce the code of conduct, or face potential repercussions. It sends
the wrong message, when really we just want maintainers to be part of
the solution and not violate the code of conduct themselves.
Removing it doesn't limit our ability to enforce the code of conduct,
and we can still encourage maintainers to help maintain high standards
for the level of discourse in their subsystem.

The Code of Conflict is not achieving its implicit goal of fostering
civility and the spirit of 'be excellent to each other'. Explicit
guidelines have demonstrated success in other projects and other areas
of the kernel.
Here is a Code of Conduct statement for the wider kernel. It is based
on the Contributor Covenant as described at www.contributor-covenant.org
From this point forward, we should abide by these rules in order to help
make the kernel community a welcoming environment to participate in.

Meelis Roos reported a {menu,n}config regression:
"I have libncurses devel package installed in the default system
location (as do 99%+ on actual developers probably) and in this
case, pkg-config is useless. pkg-config is needed only when
libraries and headers are installed in non-default locations but
it is bad to require installation of pkg-config on all the machines
where make menuconfig would be possibly run."
For {menu,n}config, do not use pkg-config if it is not installed.
For {g,x}config, keep checking pkg-config since we really rely on it
for finding the installation paths of the required packages.
Fixes: 4ab3b80159 ("kconfig: check for pkg-config on make {menu,n,g,x}config")

So update the minimum required version of gcc to 4.6.

Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A set of fixes and updates for x86:
- Address a swiotlb regression which was caused by the recent DMA
rework and made driver fail because dma_direct_supported() returned
false
- Fix a signedness bug in the APIC ID validation which caused invalid
APIC IDs to be detected as valid thereby bloating the CPU possible
space.
- Fix inconsisten config dependcy/select magic for the MFD_CS5535
driver.
- Fix a corruption of the physical address space bits when encryption
has reduced the address space and late cpuinfo updates overwrite
the reduced bit information with the original value.
- Dominiks syscall rework which consolidates the architecture
specific syscall functions so all syscalls can be wrapped with the
same macros. This allows to switch x86/64 to struct pt_regs based
syscalls. Extend the clearing of user space controlled registers in
the entry patch to the lower registers"

clang-format is a tool to format C/C++/... code according to a set of
rules and heuristics. Like most tools, it is not perfect nor covers
every single case, but it is good enough to be helpful.
In particular, it is useful for quickly re-formatting blocks of code
automatically, for reviewing full files in order to spot coding style
mistakes, typos and possible improvements. It is also handy for sorting
``#includes``, for aligning variables and macros, for reflowing text and
other similar tasks. It also serves as a teaching tool/guide for
newcomers.
The tool itself has been already included in the repositories of popular
Linux distributions for a long time. The rules in this file are
intended for clang-format >= 4, which is easily available in most
distributions.
This commit adds the configuration file that contains the rules that the
tool uses to know how to format the code according to the kernel coding
style. This gives us several advantages:
* clang-format works out of the box with reasonable defaults;
avoiding that everyone has to re-do the configuration.
* Everyone agrees (eventually) on what is the most useful default
configuration for most of the kernel.
* If it becomes commonplace among kernel developers, clang-format
may feel compelled to support us better. They already recognize
the Linux kernel and its style in their documentation and in one
of the style sub-options.
Some of clang-format's features relevant for the kernel are:
* Uses clang's tooling support behind the scenes to parse and rewrite
the code. It is not based on ad-hoc regexps.
* Supports reasonably well the Linux kernel coding style.
* Fast enough to be used at the press of a key.
* There are already integrations (either built-in or third-party)
for many common editors used by kernel developers (e.g. vim,
emacs, Sublime, Atom...) that allow you to format an entire file
or, more usefully, just your selection.
* Able to parse unified diffs -- you can, for instance, reformat
only the lines changed by a git commit.
* Able to reflow text comments as well.
* Widely supported and used by hundreds of developers in highly
complex projects and organizations (e.g. the LLVM project itself,
Chromium, WebKit, Google, Mozilla...). Therefore, it will be
supported for a long time.
See more information about the tool at:
https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.htmlhttps://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormatStyleOptions.html

Tidy the naming convention for compat syscall subs. Hints which describe
the purpose of the stub go in front and receive a double underscore to
denote that they are generated on-the-fly by the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
macro.
For the generic case, this means:
t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
__do_compat_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
T __se_compat_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long,
# casts them to unsigned long and then to
# the declared type)
T compat_sys_waitid # alias to __se_compat_sys_waitid()
# (taking parameters as declared), to
# be included in syscall table
For x86, the naming is as follows:
t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
__do_compat_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
t __se_compat_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long,
# casts them to unsigned long and then to
# the declared type)
T __ia32_compat_sys_waitid # IA32_EMULATION 32-bit-ptregs -> C stub,
# calls __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be
# included in syscall table
T __x32_compat_sys_waitid # x32 64-bit-ptregs -> C stub, calls
# __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be included
# in syscall table
If only one of IA32_EMULATION and x32 is enabled, __se_compat_sys_waitid()
may be inlined into the stub __{ia32,x32}_compat_sys_waitid().

"There's been a fair amount of activity in Documentation/ this time
around:
- Lots of work aligning Documentation/ABI with reality, done by
Aishwarya Pant.
- The trace documentation has been converted to RST by Changbin Du
- I thrashed up kernel-doc to deal with a parsing issue and to try to
make the code more readable. It's still a 20+-year-old Perl hack,
though.

Incremental linking is gone, so rename built-in.o to built-in.a, which
is the usual extension for archive files.
This patch does two things, first is a simple search/replace:
git grep -l 'built-in\.o' | xargs sed -i 's/built-in\.o/built-in\.a/g'
The second is to invert nesting of nested text manipulations to avoid
filtering built-in.a out from libs-y2:
-libs-y2 := $(filter-out %.a, $(patsubst %/, %/built-in.a, $(libs-y)))
+libs-y2 := $(patsubst %/, %/built-in.a, $(filter-out %.a, $(libs-y)))

The syscall entry points to the kernel defined by SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
and COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() should only be called from userspace
through kernel entry points, but not from the kernel itself. This
will allow cleanups and optimizations to the entry paths *and* to
the parts of the kernel code which currently need to pretend to be
userspace in order to make use of syscalls.

With the addition of SPDX patchset, the contents of COPYING file
is now duplicated at two other files under LICENSE:
LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0
LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note
It is easy to check that the contents of the licence written on
those files are identical with COPYING using:
$ diff -upr COPYING LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0
$ diff -upr COPYING LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note|less
Also, a new file was added, with describes how SPDX should work at
the Kernel source files:
Documentation/process/license-rules.rst
Instead fo having it copying the contents of two files, and not
even mentioning the third one, replace it by a file whose content
points to the other tree files, preserving the Kernel's license.
Adjust license-rules.rst accordingly.
Please notice that this file preserves the Kernel license as
is, without any changes.

A pretty big batch of Kconfig updates. I have to mention the lexer
and parser of Kconfig are now built from real .l and .y sources.
So, flex and bison are the requirement for building the kernel.
Both of them (unlike gperf) have been stable for a long time. This
change has been tested several weeks in linux-next, and I did not
receive any problem report about this.
Summary:
- Add checks for mistakes, like the choice default is not in
choice, help is doubled
- Document data structure and complex code
- Fix various memory leaks
- Change Makefile to build lexer and parser instead of using
pre-generated C files
- Drop 'boolean' keyword, which is equivalent to 'bool'
- Use default 'yy' prefix and remove unneeded Make variables
- Fix gettext() check for xconfig
- Announce that oldnoconfig will be finally removed
- Make 'Selected by:' and 'Implied by' readable in help and
search result
- Hide silentoldconfig from 'make help' to stop confusing people
- Fix misc things and cleanups

This guide is an adapted version of the more general "Protecting Code
Integrity" guide written and maintained by The Linux Foundation IT for
use with open-source projects. It provides the oft-lacking guidance on
the following topics:
- how to properly protect one's PGP keys to minimize the risks of them
being stolen and used maliciously to impersonate a kernel developer
- how to configure Git to properly use GnuPG
- when and how to use PGP with Git
- how to verify fellow Linux Kernel developer identities
I believe this document should live with the rest of the documentation
describing proper processes one should follow when participating in
kernel development. Placing it in a wiki on some place like kernel.org
would be insufficient for a number of reasons -- primarily, because only
a relatively small subset of maintainers have accounts on kernel.org,
but also because even those who do rarely remember that such wiki
exists. Keeping it with the rest of in-kernel docs should hopefully give
it more visibility, but also help keep it up-to-date as tools and
processes evolve.
