Here is a single driver core fix for 4.20-rc5 It resolves an issue with the data alignment in 'struct devres' for the ARC platform. The full details are in the commit changelog, but the short summary is the change is a single line: - unsigned long long data[]; /* guarantee ull alignment */ + u8 __aligned(ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN) data[]; This has been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

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.
