- Fix region creation crash with pass-through decoders
 
 - Fix region creation crash when no decoder allocation fails
 
 - Fix region creation crash when scanning regions to enforce the
   increasing physical address order constraint that CXL mandates
 
 - Fix a memory leak for cxl_pmem_region objects, track 1:N instead of
   1:1 memory-device-to-region associations.

   targets are deleted
 
 - Fix assignment of NUMA nodes to CXL regions by CFMWS (CXL Window)

 - Fix region creation failure for switch attached devices downstream of
   a single-port host-bridge

   recently used region ids rather than freeing them

Pull cxl fixes from Dan Williams:
 "Several fixes for CXL region creation crashes, leaks and failures.

  This is mainly fallout from the original implementation of dynamic CXL
  region creation (instantiate new physical memory pools) that arrived
  in v6.0-rc1.

  Given the theme of "failures in the presence of pass-through decoders"
  this also includes new regression test infrastructure for that case.

  Summary:

   - Fix region creation crash with pass-through decoders

   - Fix region creation crash when no decoder allocation fails

   - Fix region creation crash when scanning regions to enforce the
     increasing physical address order constraint that CXL mandates

   - Fix a memory leak for cxl_pmem_region objects, track 1:N instead of
     1:1 memory-device-to-region associations.

   - Fix a memory leak for cxl_region objects when regions with active
     targets are deleted

   - Fix assignment of NUMA nodes to CXL regions by CFMWS (CXL Window)
     emulated proximity domains.

   - Fix region creation failure for switch attached devices downstream
     of a single-port host-bridge

   - Fix false positive memory leak of cxl_region objects by recycling
     recently used region ids rather than freeing them

   - Add regression test infrastructure for a pass-through decoder
     configuration

   - Fix some mailbox payload handling corner cases"

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.
