Linus Torvalds ac92c27935 s390 updates for 6.4-rc3
- Add check whether the required facilities are installed
   before using the s390-specific ChaCha20 implementation.
 
 - Key blobs for s390 protected key interface IOCTLs commands
   PKEY_VERIFYKEY2 and PKEY_VERIFYKEY3 may contain clear key
   material. Zeroize copies of these keys in kernel memory
   after creating protected keys.
 
 - Set CONFIG_INIT_STACK_NONE=y in defconfigs to avoid extra
   overhead of initializing all stack variables by default.
 
 - Make sure that when a new channel-path is enabled all
   subchannels are evaluated: with and without any devices
   connected on it.
 
 - When SMT thread CPUs are added to CPU topology masks the
   nr_cpu_ids limit is not checked and could be exceeded.
   Respect the nr_cpu_ids limit and avoid a warning when
   CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS is set.
 
 - The pointer to IPL Parameter Information Block is stored
   in the absolute lowcore as a virtual address. Save it as
   the physical address for later use by dump tools.
 
 - Fix a Queued Direct I/O (QDIO) problem on z/VM guests using
   QIOASSIST with dedicated (pass through) QDIO-based devices
   such as FCP, real OSA or HiperSockets.
 
 - s390's struct statfs and struct statfs64 contain padding,
   which field-by-field copying does not set. Initialize the
   respective structures with zeros before filling them and
   copying to userspace.
 
 - Grow s390 compat_statfs64, statfs and statfs64 structures
   f_spare array member to cover padding and simplify things.
 
 - Remove obsolete SCHED_BOOK and SCHED_DRAWER configs.
 
 - Remove unneeded S390_CCW_IOMMU and S390_AP_IOM configs.

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.
