- A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro. These create more than the usual number of simple but annoying merge conflicts with other trees, unfortunately. He has a lot more of these waiting on the wings that, I think, will go to you directly later on. - A new document on how to use merges and rebases in kernel repos, and one on Spectre vulnerabilities. - Various improvements to the build system, including automatic markup of function() references because some people, for reasons I will never understand, were of the opinion that :c:func:``function()`` is unattractive and not fun to type. - We now recommend using sphinx 1.7, but still support back to 1.4. - Lots of smaller improvements, warning fixes, typo fixes, etc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFDBAABCAAtFiEEIw+MvkEiF49krdp9F0NaE2wMflgFAl0krAEPHGNvcmJldEBs d24ubmV0AAoJEBdDWhNsDH5Yg98H/AuLqO9LpOgUjF4LhyjxGPdzJkY9RExSJ7km gznyreLCZgFaJR+AY6YDsd4Jw6OJlPbu1YM/Qo3C3WrZVFVhgL/s2ebvBgCo50A8 raAFd8jTf4/mGCHnAqRotAPQ3mETJUk315B66lBJ6Oc+YdpRhwXWq8ZW2bJxInFF 3HDvoFgMf0KhLuMHUkkL0u3fxH1iA+KvDu8diPbJYFjOdOWENz/CV8wqdVkXRSEW DJxIq89h/7d+hIG3d1I7Nw+gibGsAdjSjKv4eRKauZs4Aoxd1Gpl62z0JNk6aT3m dtq4joLdwScydonXROD/Twn2jsu4xYTrPwVzChomElMowW/ZBBY= =D0eO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'docs-5.3' of git://git.lwn.net/linux Pull Documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "It's been a relatively busy cycle for docs: - A fair pile of RST conversions, many from Mauro.

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.
