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.

Pull namespace fixes from Eric Biederman:
"I believe all of these are simple obviously correct bug fixes. These
fall into two groups:
- Fixing the implementation of MNT_LOCKED which prevents lesser
privileged users from seeing unders mounts created by more
privileged users.
- Fixing the extended uid and group mapping in user namespaces.
As well as ensuring the code looks correct I have spot tested these
changes as well and in my testing the fixes are working"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
mount: Prevent MNT_DETACH from disconnecting locked mounts
mount: Don't allow copying MNT_UNBINDABLE|MNT_LOCKED mounts
mount: Retest MNT_LOCKED in do_umount
userns: also map extents in the reverse map to kernel IDs| Name | Last commit | Last update |
