accounting with focus on fixing wildly inaccurate IO stats for dm-crypt (and other DM targets that defer bio submission in their own workqueues). End result is proper IO accounting, made possible by targets being updated to use the new dm_submit_bio_remap() interface. - Add hipri bio polling support (REQ_POLLED) to bio-based DM. - Reduce dm_io and dm_target_io structs so that a single dm_io (which contains dm_target_io and first clone bio) weighs in at 256 bytes. For reference the bio struct is 128 bytes. - Various other small cleanups, fixes or improvements in DM core and targets. - Update MAINTAINERS with my kernel.org email address to allow distinction between my "upstream" and "Red" Hats. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAABCAAdFiEEJfWUX4UqZ4x1O2wixSPxCi2dA1oFAmI7ghIACgkQxSPxCi2d A1q04wgAzaRu186WjfCO8MK0uyv3S52Rw1EsgYealAqoPwQJ9KkW2icvjtwRL+fJ 1+w6qE/Da6QdwXj9lGtp1XIXJFipNJSw3PSaE/tV2cXiBemZlzJ5vR6F6dfeYKmV /sGas46H2l+aD4Xr7unUmcN/AYrNIFtnucClY3+DlJFPesXQQc9a/XmL9RX9MrN4 MS9wLkh/5QSG3zReEct/4GVmNSJAjFfLkkeFHtLN82jvvDmnszRT5+aJ06WkXeOz OZmQfOPnJv5MnFUz9DOaRb/fTCoyxzxLnNM5Lt3jyFPk9Jf8Qz9TJ2rgskxsE83u UsCD/Y/QAdDcrRVB5SS6+yx4AS6uSA== =cinj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'for-5.18/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - Significant refactoring and fixing of how DM core does bio-based IO accounting with focus on fixing wildly inaccurate IO stats for dm-crypt (and other DM targets that defer bio submission in their own workqueues).

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.
