GRUB may align the init ramdisk size to 4 bytes, the magic number at the end of the init ramdisk that denotes bootconfig is attached may not be at the exact end of the ramdisk. The kernel needs to check back at least 4 bytes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCX66JaxQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qpWgAPwKHiHkSIBW2eFblngmknzLZsdmUep/ NAm+FxhQBHryJQEAido2x++mXD0/KVLotpTHQHsZv2xFkEbMZGY/3R2iog4= =Xhnj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v5.10-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull bootconfig fix from Steven Rostedt: "Fix alignment of bootconfig GRUB may align the init ramdisk size to 4 bytes, the magic number at the end of the init ramdisk that denotes bootconfig is attached may not be at the exact end of the ramdisk.

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.
