Linux kernel source tree

We'd like to support Enum/SignedEnum/UnsignedEnum blocks within SysregFields blocks, so that we can define enumerations for sets of registers. This isn't currently supported by gen-sysreg.awk due to the way we track the active block, which can't handle more than a single layer of nesting, which imposes an awkward requirement that when ending a block we know what the parent block is when calling change_block() Make this nicer by using a stack of active blocks, with block_push() to start a block, and block_pop() to end a block. Doing so means that we only need to check the active block at the start of parsing a line: for the start of a block we can check the parent is valid, and for the end of a block we check that the active block is valid. This structure makes the block parsing simpler and makes it easy to permit a block to live under several potential parents (e.g. by permitting Enum to start when the active block is Sysreg or SysregFields). It also permits further nesting, if we need that in future. To aid debugging, the stack of active blocks is reported for fatal errors, and an error is raised if the file is terminated without ending the active block. For clarity I've renamed the top-level element from "None" to "Root". The Fields element it intended only for use within Sysreg blocks, and does not make sense within SysregFields blocks, and so remains forbidden within a SysregFields block. I've verified using sha1sum that this patch does not change the current generated contents of <asm/sysreg-defs.h>.

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.
