Pull x86 mtrr updates from Borislav Petkov: "A serious scrubbing of the MTRR code including adding a new map mechanism in order to look up the memory type of a region easily. Also address memory range lookup issues like returning an invalid memory type. Furthermore, this handles the decoupling of PAT from MTRR more naturally. All work by Juergen Gross" * tag 'x86_mtrr_for_v6.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/xen: Set default memory type for PV guests to WB x86/mtrr: Unify debugging printing x86/mtrr: Remove unused code x86/mm: Only check uniform after calling mtrr_type_lookup() x86/mtrr: Don't let mtrr_type_lookup() return MTRR_TYPE_INVALID x86/mtrr: Use new cache_map in mtrr_type_lookup() x86/mtrr: Add mtrr=debug command line option x86/mtrr: Construct a memory map with cache modes x86/mtrr: Add get_effective_type() service function x86/mtrr: Allocate mtrr_value array dynamically x86/mtrr: Move 32-bit code from mtrr.c to legacy.c x86/mtrr: Have only one set_mtrr() variant x86/mtrr: Replace vendor tests in MTRR code x86/xen: Set MTRR state when running as Xen PV initial domain x86/hyperv: Set MTRR state when running as SEV-SNP Hyper-V guest x86/mtrr: Support setting MTRR state for software defined MTRRs x86/mtrr: Replace size_or_mask and size_and_mask with a much easier concept x86/mtrr: Remove physical address size calculation
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.
