Jeremy Kerr says: ==================== MCTP tag control interface This series implements a small interface for userspace-controlled message tag allocation for the MCTP protocol. Rather than leaving the kernel to allocate per-message tag values, userspace can explicitly allocate (and release) message tags through two new ioctls: SIOCMCTPALLOCTAG and SIOCMCTPDROPTAG. In order to do this, we first introduce some minor changes to the tag handling, including a couple of new tests for the route input paths. As always, any comments/queries/etc are most welcome. v2: - make mctp_lookup_prealloc_tag static - minor checkpatch formatting fixes ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
