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.

The memory allocations for kprobes and BPF on arm64 can be placed anywhere in vmalloc address space and currently this is implemented with overrides of alloc_insn_page() and bpf_jit_alloc_exec() in arm64. Define EXECMEM_KPROBES and EXECMEM_BPF ranges in arm64::execmem_info and drop overrides of alloc_insn_page() and bpf_jit_alloc_exec(). Signed-off-by:Mike Rapoport (IBM) <rppt@kernel.org> Acked-by:
