support; virtual interrupt controller performance improvements; support
for userspace virtual interrupt controller (slower, but necessary for
KVM on the weird Broadcom SoCs used by the Raspberry Pi 3)
* MIPS: basic support for hardware virtualization (ImgTec
P5600/P6600/I6400 and Cavium Octeon III)
* PPC: in-kernel acceleration for VFIO
* s390: support for guests without storage keys; adapter interruption
suppression
* x86: usual range of nVMX improvements, notably nested EPT support for
accessed and dirty bits; emulation of CPL3 CPUID faulting
* generic: first part of VCPU thread request API; kvm_stat improvements

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.
