For instance, see how those 'cmd' ioctl arguments get translated, now
VDPA_GET_VRING_SIZE will be as well:

This addresses this perf tools build warning:
diff -u tools/perf/trace/beauty/include/uapi/linux/vhost.h include/uapi/linux/vhost.h
But this specific process, usually boring, this time around catch a
problem, namely the addition of VDPA_GET_VRING_SIZE used an ioctl number
already taken, which went on unnoticed and only got caught when the
tools/perf/trace/beauty/vhost_virtio_ioctl.sh script was run as part of
the perf tools process of updating the tools copies of system headers it
uses for creating id->string tables that, well, broke the perf tools
build because there were multiple initializations in the strings table
for the 0x80 entry...
I'm adding here a link to the discussion, that is lacking in the fix for
the reported problem, and a quote from one of the developers involved:
"Thanks a lot for taking care of this! So given the header is actually
buggy pls hang on to this change until I merge the fix for the header
(you were CC'd on the patch). It's great we have this redundancy which
allowed us to catch the bug in time, and many thanks to Namhyung Kim for
reporting the issue!"
This is here as a hint for anyone thinking about ways to automate
checking these issues in a more automated way... ;-)

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.
