Pull slab updates from Vlastimil Babka: - Convert struct slab to its own flags instead of referencing page flags, which is another preparation step before separating it from struct page completely. Along with that, a bunch of documentation fixes and cleanups (Matthew Wilcox) - Convert large kmalloc to use frozen pages in order to be consistent with non-large kmalloc slabs (Vlastimil Babka) - MAINTAINERS updates (Matthew Wilcox, Lorenzo Stoakes) - Restore NUMA policy support for large kmalloc, broken by mistake in v6.1 (Vlastimil Babka) * tag 'slab-for-6.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vbabka/slab: MAINTAINERS: add missing files to slab section slab: Update MAINTAINERS entry memcg_slabinfo: Fix use of PG_slab kfence: Remove mention of PG_slab vmcoreinfo: Remove documentation of PG_slab and PG_hugetlb doc: Add slab internal kernel-doc slub: Fix a documentation build error for krealloc() slab: Add SL_pfmemalloc flag slab: Add SL_partial flag slab: Rename slab->__page_flags to slab->flags doc: Move SLUB documentation to the admin guide mm, slab: use frozen pages for large kmalloc mm, slab: restore NUMA policy support for large kmalloc
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.
