* kvm-arm64/nv-timers:
: .
: Nested Virt support for the EL2 timers. From the initial cover letter:
:
: "Here's another batch of NV-related patches, this time bringing in most
: of the timer support for EL2 as well as nested guests.
:
: The code is pretty convoluted for a bunch of reasons:
:
: - FEAT_NV2 breaks the timer semantics by redirecting HW controls to
: memory, meaning that a guest could setup a timer and never see it
: firing until the next exit
:
: - We go try hard to reflect the timer state in memory, but that's not
: great.
:
: - With FEAT_ECV, we can finally correctly emulate the virtual timer,
: but this emulation is pretty costly
:
: - As a way to make things suck less, we handle timer reads as early as
: possible, and only defer writes to the normal trap handling
:
: - Finally, some implementations are badly broken, and require some
: hand-holding, irrespective of NV support. So we try and reuse the NV
: infrastructure to make them usable. This could be further optimised,
: but I'm running out of patience for this sort of HW.

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.
