Linus Torvalds a50243b1dd 5.1 Merge Window Pull Request
This has been a slightly more active cycle than normal with ongoing core
 changes and quite a lot of collected driver updates.
 
 - Various driver fixes for bnxt_re, cxgb4, hns, mlx5, pvrdma, rxe
 
 - A new data transfer mode for HFI1 giving higher performance
 
 - Significant functional and bug fix update to the mlx5 On-Demand-Paging MR
   feature
 
 - A chip hang reset recovery system for hns
 
 - Change mm->pinned_vm to an atomic64
 
 - Update bnxt_re to support a new 57500 chip
 
 - A sane netlink 'rdma link add' method for creating rxe devices and fixing
   the various unregistration race conditions in rxe's unregister flow
 
 - Allow lookup up objects by an ID over netlink
 
 - Various reworking of the core to driver interface:
   * Drivers should not assume umem SGLs are in PAGE_SIZE chunks
   * ucontext is accessed via udata not other means
   * Start to make the core code responsible for object memory
     allocation
   * Drivers should convert struct device to struct ib_device
     via a helper
   * Drivers have more tools to avoid use after unregister problems

README

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.
