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.

An exiting task might belong to an offline cgroup. In this case an attempt to grab a cgroup reference from the task can end up with an infinite loop in hugetlb_cgroup_charge_cgroup(), because neither the cgroup will become online, neither the task will be migrated to a live cgroup. Fix this by switching over to css_tryget(). As css_tryget_online() can't guarantee that the cgroup won't go offline, in most cases the check doesn't make sense. In this particular case users of hugetlb_cgroup_charge_cgroup() are not affected by this change. A similar problem is described by commit 18fa84a2 ("cgroup: Use css_tryget() instead of css_tryget_online() in task_get_css()").
