Linus Torvalds ef3ad0898a linux-kselftest-4.13-rc1-update
This update consists of:
 
 -- TAP13 framework and changes to some tests to convert to TAP13.
    Converting kselftest output to standard format will help identify
    run to run differences and pin point failures easily. TAP13 format
    has been in use for several years and the output is human friendly.
 
    Please find the specification:
    https://testanything.org/tap-version-13-specification.html
 
    Credit goes to Tim Bird for recommending TAP13 as a suitable format,
    and to Grag KH for kick starting the work with help from Paul Elder
    and Alice Ferrazzi
 
    The first phase of the TAp13 conversion is included in this update.
    Future updates will include updates to rest of the tests.
 
 -- Masami Hiramatsu fixed ftrace to run on 4.9 stable kernels.
 
 -- Kselftest documnetation has been converted to ReST format. Document
    now has a new home under Documentation/dev-tools.
 
 -- kselftest_harness.h is now available for general use as a result of
    Mickaël Salaün's work.
 
 -- Several fixes to skip and/or fail tests gracefully on older releases.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
