Linux kernel source tree
C supports lower bounds on the sizes of array parameters, using the static keyword as follows: 'void f(int a[static 32]);'. This allows the compiler to warn about a too-small array being passed. As discussed, this reuse of the 'static' keyword, while standard, is a bit obscure. Therefore, add an alias 'at_least' to compiler_types.h. Then, add this 'at_least' annotation to the array parameters of various crypto library functions. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQSacvsUNc7UX4ntmEPzXCl4vpKOKwUCaSuslxQcZWJpZ2dlcnNA a2VybmVsLm9yZwAKCRDzXCl4vpKOK/dXAP9WyuTsEYOOSwSaDI5sKzdNXT3GZNeO jGhx9qPN3KIq8QD/RElN9oF7iU9wsKvU6kKpnqGcajGTzkW/GOAA20BFcAM= =qFEB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'libcrypto-at-least-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux Pull 'at_least' array size update from Eric Biggers: "C supports lower bounds on the sizes of array parameters, using the static keyword as follows: 'void f(int a[static 32]);'.

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.
