Linux kernel source tree
Recent Linux versions refuse to print actual virtual kernel addresses, to not give a hint about the location of the kernel in a randomized virtual address space. This affects the output of the sunxi MMC controller driver, which now produces the rather uninformative line: [ 1.482660] sunxi-mmc 1c0f000.mmc: base:0x(____ptrval____) irq:8 Since the virtual base address is not really interesting in the first place, let's just drop this value. The same applies to Linux' notion of the interrupt number, which is independent from the GIC SPI number. We have the physical address as part of the DT node name, which is way more useful for debugging purposes. To keep a success message in the driver, we make this purpose explicit with the word "initialized", plus print some information that is not too obvious and that we learned while probing the device: the maximum request size and whether it uses the new timing mode. So the output turns into: [ 1.750626] sunxi-mmc 1c0f000.mmc: initialized, max. request size: 16384 KB, uses new timings mode [ 1.786699] sunxi-mmc 1c11000.mmc: initialized, max. request size: 2048 KB Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com> Acked-by: Maxime Ripard <maxime.ripard@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Ulf Hansson <ulf.hansson@linaro.org> |

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.
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.
