docs: admin-guide: Move edid.rst from driver-api

2020-02-19T11:10:31Z

This document describes actions that an admin can do, rather than interfaces available to driver developers, so admin-guide seems to be a more appropriate place for it. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

Merge tag 'trace-v5.6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace

2020-02-06T07:12:11Z

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added new "bootconfig". This looks for a file appended to initrd to add boot config options, and has been discussed thoroughly at Linux Plumbers. Very useful for adding kprobes at bootup. Only enabled if "bootconfig" is on the real kernel command line. - Created dynamic event creation. Merges common code between creating synthetic events and kprobe events. - Rename perf "ring_buffer" structure to "perf_buffer" - Rename ftrace "ring_buffer" structure to "trace_buffer" Had to rename existing "trace_buffer" to "array_buffer" - Allow trace_printk() to work withing (some) tracing code. - Sort of tracing configs to be a little better organized - Fixed bug where ftrace_graph hash was not being protected properly - Various other small fixes and clean ups * tag 'trace-v5.6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (88 commits) bootconfig: Show the number of nodes on boot message tools/bootconfig: Show the number of bootconfig nodes bootconfig: Add more parse error messages bootconfig: Use bootconfig instead of boot config ftrace: Protect ftrace_graph_hash with ftrace_sync ftrace: Add comment to why rcu_dereference_sched() is open coded tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_notrace_hash pointer with __rcu tracing: Annotate ftrace_graph_hash pointer with __rcu bootconfig: Only load bootconfig if "bootconfig" is on the kernel cmdline tracing: Use seq_buf for building dynevent_cmd string tracing: Remove useless code in dynevent_arg_pair_add() tracing: Remove check_arg() callbacks from dynevent args tracing: Consolidate some synth_event_trace code tracing: Fix now invalid var_ref_vals assumption in trace action tracing: Change trace_boot to use synth_event interface tracing: Move tracing selftests to bottom of menu tracing: Move mmio tracer config up with the other tracers tracing: Move tracing test module configs together tracing: Move all function tracing configs together tracing: Documentation for in-kernel synthetic event API ...

Documentation: convert nfs.txt to ReST

2020-01-16T19:43:04Z

This patch converts nfs.txt to RST. It also moves it to admin-guide. The reason for moving it is because this document contains information useful for system administrators, as noted on the following paragraph: 'The purpose of this document is to provide information on some of the special features of the NFS client that can be configured by system administrators'.

docs: admin-guide: Sort the "unordered guides" to avoid merge conflicts

2019-10-15T18:34:32Z

Since the "unordered guides" linked in admin-guide/index.rst are not supposed to be in any particular order, let's sort them alphabetically to avoid the risk of merge conflicts by spreading newly added lines more evenly. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: fs: cifs: convert to ReST and add to admin-guide book

2019-07-31T20:13:42Z

The filenames for cifs documentation is not using the same convention as almost all Kernel documents is using. So, rename them to a more appropriate name. Then, manually convert the documentation files for CIFS to ReST. By doing a manual conversion, we can preserve the original author's style, while making it to look more like the other Kernel documents. Most of the conversion here is trivial. The most complex one was the README file (which was renamed to usage.rst). Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: admin-guide: add auxdisplay files to it after conversion to ReST

2019-07-31T19:30:06Z

Those two files describe userspace-faced information. While part of it might fit on uAPI, it sounds to me that the admin guide is the best place for them. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Acked-by: Miguel Ojeda Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet
