Onewire devices has 6 byte long unique serial numbers, 1 byte family
code and 1 byte CRC. Linux sysfs presents the device folder in the
form of familyID-deviceID, so CRC is not shown. The consequence is
that the device serial number is always a 12 long hex-string, but
doc says 13 in one place. This is corrected by this change.

thus you can make filenames for example in Gothic (𐌼𐌴𐍉𐍅), the other Gothic

Changes required to complete conversion
- Move printk-formats.txt to core-api/printk-formats.rst
- Add entry to Documentation/core-api/index.rst
- Remove entry from Documentation/00-INDEX
- Fix minor grammatical errors.
- Order heading adornments as suggested by rst docs.
- Use 'Passed by reference' uniformly.
- Update pointer documentation around %px specifier.
- Fix erroneous double backticks (to commas).

There is currently very little documentation in the kernel on maintainer
level tasks. In particular there are no documents on creating pull
requests to submit to Linus.
Quoting Greg Kroah-Hartman on LKML:
Anyway, this actually came up at the kernel summit / maintainer
meeting a few weeks ago, in that "how do I make a
good pull request to Linus" is something we need to document.
Here's what I do, and it seems to work well, so maybe we should turn
it into the start of the documentation for how to do it.
(quote references: kernel summit, Europe 2017)
Create a new kernel documentation book 'how to be a maintainer'
(suggested by Jonathan Corbet). Add chapters on 'configuring git' and
'creating a pull request'.
Most of the content was written by Linus Torvalds and Greg Kroah-Hartman
in discussion on LKML. This is stated at the start of one of the
chapters and the original email thread is referenced in
'pull-requests.rst'.

On media, we now have an struct declared with:
struct lirc_fh {
struct list_head list;
struct rc_dev *rc;
int carrier_low;
bool send_timeout_reports;
DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR(rawir, unsigned int);
DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR(scancodes, struct lirc_scancode);
wait_queue_head_t wait_poll;
u8 send_mode;
u8 rec_mode;
};
gpiolib.c has a similar declaration with DECLARE_KFIFO().
Currently, those produce the following error:
./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: No description found for parameter 'int'
./include/media/rc-core.h:96: warning: No description found for parameter 'lirc_scancode'

RACK skips an ACK unless it advances the most recently delivered
TX timestamp (rack.mstamp). Since RACK also uses the most recent
RTT to decide if a packet is lost, RACK should still run the
loss detection whenever the most recent RTT changes. For example,
an ACK that does not advance the timestamp but triggers the cwnd
undo due to reordering, would then use the most recent (higher)
RTT measurement to detect further losses.

RACK does not test the loss recovery state correctly to compute
the reordering window. It assumes if lost_out is zero then TCP is
not in loss recovery. But it can be zero during recovery before
calling tcp_rack_detect_loss(): when an ACK acknowledges all
packets marked lost before receiving this ACK, but has not yet
to discover new ones by tcp_rack_detect_loss(). The fix is to
simply test the congestion state directly.

Under high reordering, reordering events can be interpreted as loss.
If the reordering and spurious loss estimates are high enough, this

This commit records the "full bw reached" decision in a new
full_bw_reached bit. This is a pure refactor that does not change the
current behavior, but enables subsequent fixes and improvements.
In particular, this enables simple and clean fixes because the full_bw
and full_bw_cnt can be unconditionally zeroed without worrying about
forgetting that we estimated we filled the pipe in Startup. And it
enables future improvements because multiple code paths can be used
for estimating that we filled the pipe in Startup; any new code paths
only need to set this bit when they think the pipe is full.
Note that this fix intentionally reduces the width of the full_bw_cnt
counter, since we have never used the most significant bit.

If an overlay has no "__symbols__" node, but it has nodes without
"__overlay__" subnodes at the end (e.g. a "__fixups__" node), after
filling in all fragments for nodes with "__overlay__" subnodes,
"fragment = &fragments[cnt]" will point beyond the end of the allocated
array.
Hence writing to "fragment->overlay" will overwrite unallocated memory,
which may lead to a crash later.
Fix this by deferring both the assignment to "fragment" and the
offending write afterwards until we know for sure the node has an
"__overlay__" subnode, and thus a valid entry in "fragments[]".

In public_key_verify_signature(), if akcipher_request_alloc() fails, we
return -ENOMEM. But that error code was set 25 lines above, and by
accident someone could easily insert new code in between that assigns to
'ret', which would introduce a signature verification bypass. Make the
code clearer by moving the -ENOMEM down to where it is used.
Additionally, the callers of public_key_verify_signature() only consider
a negative return value to be an error. This means that if any positive
return value is accidentally introduced deeper in the call stack (e.g.
'return EBADMSG' instead of 'return -EBADMSG' somewhere in RSA),
signature verification will be bypassed. Make things more robust by
having public_key_verify_signature() warn about positive errors and
translate them into -EINVAL.

Callers of sprint_oid() do not check its return value before printing
the result. In the case where the OID is zero-length, -EBADMSG was
being returned without anything being written to the buffer, resulting
in uninitialized stack memory being printed. Fix this by writing
"(bad)" to the buffer in the cases where -EBADMSG is returned.

In sprint_oid(), if the input buffer were to be more than 1 byte too
small for the first snprintf(), 'bufsize' would underflow, causing a
buffer overflow when printing the remainder of the OID.
Fortunately this cannot actually happen currently, because no users pass
in a buffer that can be too small for the first snprintf().
Regardless, fix it by checking the snprintf() return value correctly.
For consistency also tweak the second snprintf() check to look the same.

Adding a specially crafted X.509 certificate whose subjectPublicKey
ASN.1 value is zero-length caused x509_extract_key_data() to set the
public key size to SIZE_MAX, as it subtracted the nonexistent BIT STRING
metadata byte. Then, x509_cert_parse() called kmemdup() with that bogus
size, triggering the WARN_ON_ONCE() in kmalloc_slab().
This appears to be harmless, but it still must be fixed since WARNs are
never supposed to be user-triggerable.
Fix it by updating x509_cert_parse() to validate that the value has a
BIT STRING metadata byte, and that the byte is 0 which indicates that
the number of bits in the bitstring is a multiple of 8.
It would be nice to handle the metadata byte in asn1_ber_decoder()
instead. But that would be tricky because in the general case a BIT
STRING could be implicitly tagged, and/or could legitimately have a
length that is not a whole number of bytes.
Here was the WARN (cleaned up slightly):
