- Support for the Armv8.9 Permission Indirection Extensions. While this
feature doesn't add new functionality, it enables future support for
Guarded Control Stacks (GCS) and Permission Overlays.
- User-space support for the Armv8.8 memcpy/memset instructions.
- arm64 perf: support the HiSilicon SoC uncore PMU, Arm CMN sysfs
identifier, support for the NXP i.MX9 SoC DDRC PMU, fixes and
cleanups.
- Removal of superfluous ISBs on context switch (following retrospective
architecture tightening).
- Decode the ISS2 register during faults for additional information to
help with debugging.
- KPTI clean-up/simplification of the trampoline exit code.
- Addressing several -Wmissing-prototype warnings.
- Kselftest improvements for signal handling and ptrace.
- Fix TPIDR2_EL0 restoring on sigreturn
- Clean-up, robustness improvements of the module allocation code.
- More sysreg conversions to the automatic register/bitfields
generation.
- CPU capabilities handling cleanup.
- Arm documentation updates: ACPI, ptdump.

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.
