Pull compiler hardening updates from Kees Cook: "These are various compiler-related hardening feature updates. Notable is the addition of an explicit limited rationale for, and deprecation schedule of, gcc-plugins. gcc-plugins: - remove support for GCC 4.9 and older (Ard Biesheuvel) - remove duplicate include in gcc-common.h (Ye Guojin) - Explicitly document purpose and deprecation schedule (Kees Cook) - Remove cyc_complexity (Kees Cook) instrumentation: - Avoid harmless Clang option under CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO (Kees Cook) Clang LTO: - kallsyms: strip LTO suffixes from static functions (Nick Desaulniers)" * tag 'hardening-v5.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: gcc-plugins: remove duplicate include in gcc-common.h gcc-plugins: Remove cyc_complexity gcc-plugins: Explicitly document purpose and deprecation schedule kallsyms: strip LTO suffixes from static functions gcc-plugins: remove support for GCC 4.9 and older hardening: Avoid harmless Clang option under CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO
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.
