Linux kernel source tree
Improvements and bug fixes for the hmm interface in the kernel:
- Improve clarity, locking and APIs related to the 'hmm mirror' feature
merged last cycle. In linux-next we now see AMDGPU and nouveau to be
using this API.
- Remove old or transitional hmm APIs. These are hold overs from the past
with no users, or APIs that existed only to manage cross tree conflicts.
There are still a few more of these cleanups that didn't make the merge
window cut off.
- Improve some core mm APIs:
* export alloc_pages_vma() for driver use
* refactor into devm_request_free_mem_region() to manage
DEVICE_PRIVATE resource reservations
* refactor duplicative driver code into the core dev_pagemap
struct
- Remove hmm wrappers of improved core mm APIs, instead have drivers use
the simplified API directly
- Remove DEVICE_PUBLIC
- Simplify the kconfig flow for the hmm users and core code

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.
