The linux-next integration testing tree
2077006d47
When I expanded uidgid mappings I intended for a struct uid_gid_map to
fit into a single cacheline on x86 as they tend to be pretty
performance sensitive (idmapped mounts etc). But a 4 byte hole was added
that brought it over 64 bytes. Fix that by adding the static extent
array and the extent counter into a substruct. C's type punning for
unions guarantees that we can access ->nr_extents even if the last
written to member wasn't within the same object. This is also what we
rely on in struct_group() and friends. This of course relies on
non-strict aliasing which we don't do.
99) If the member used to read the contents of a union object is not the
same as the member last used to store a value in the object, the
appropriate part of the object representation of the value is
reinterpreted as an object representation in the new type as
described in 6.2.6 (a process sometimes called "type punning").

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 reStructuredText 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.
