linux-next: manual merge of the kspp tree with the tip tree

From: Stephen Rothwell
Date: Mon Oct 08 2018 - 01:45:33 EST

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the kspp tree got a conflict in:

Documentation/x86/x86_64/mm.txt

between commits:

5b1290406579 ("x86/mm/doc: Clean up the x86-64 virtual memory layout descriptions")
32b89760ddf4 ("x86/mm/doc: Enhance the x86-64 virtual memory layout descriptions")

from the tip tree and commit:

afaef01c0015 ("x86/entry: Add STACKLEAK erasing the kernel stack at the end of syscalls")

from the kspp tree.

I fixed it up (see below - could probably be done better) and can carry
the fix as necessary. This is now fixed as far as linux-next is
concerned, but any non trivial conflicts should be mentioned to your
upstream maintainer when your tree is submitted for merging. You may
also want to consider cooperating with the maintainer of the
conflicting tree to minimise any particularly complex conflicts.

Cheers,
Stephen Rothwell

+Notes:
+
+ - Negative addresses such as "-23 TB" are absolute addresses in bytes, counted down
+ from the top of the 64-bit address space. It's easier to understand the layout
+ when seen both in absolute addresses and in distance-from-top notation.
+
+ For example 0xffffe90000000000 == -23 TB, it's 23 TB lower than the top of the
+ 64-bit address space (ffffffffffffffff).
+
+ Note that as we get closer to the top of the address space, the notation changes
+ from TB to GB and then MB/KB.
+
+ - "16M TB" might look weird at first sight, but it's an easier to visualize size
+ notation than "16 EB", which few will recognize at first sight as 16 exabytes.
+ It also shows it nicely how incredibly large 64-bit address space is.
