Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "It's been a busy cycle for documentation - hopefully the busiest for a while to come. Changes include: - Some new Chinese translations - Progress on the battle against double words words and non-HTTPS URLs - Some block-mq documentation - More RST conversions from Mauro. At this point, that task is essentially complete, so we shouldn't see this kind of churn again for a while. Unless we decide to switch to asciidoc or something...:) - Lots of typo fixes, warning fixes, and more" * tag 'docs-5.9' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (195 commits) scripts/kernel-doc: optionally treat warnings as errors docs: ia64: correct typo mailmap: add entry for <alobakin@marvell.com> doc/zh_CN: add cpu-load Chinese version Documentation/admin-guide: tainted-kernels: fix spelling mistake MAINTAINERS: adjust kprobes.rst entry to new location devices.txt: document rfkill allocation PCI: correct flag name docs: filesystems: vfs: correct flag name docs: filesystems: vfs: correct sync_mode flag names docs: path-lookup: markup fixes for emphasis docs: path-lookup: more markup fixes docs: path-lookup: fix HTML entity mojibake CREDITS: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones docs: process: Add an example for creating a fixes tag doc/zh_CN: add Chinese translation prefer section doc/zh_CN: add clearing-warn-once Chinese version doc/zh_CN: add admin-guide index doc:it_IT: process: coding-style.rst: Correct __maybe_unused compiler label futex: MAINTAINERS: Re-add selftests directory ...
2020-07-15powerpc/vas: Report proper error code for address translation failureHaren Myneni
P9 DD2 NX workbook (Table 4-36) says DMA controller uses CC=5 internally for translation fault handling. NX reserves CC=250 for OS to notify user space when NX encounters address translation failure on the request buffer. Not an issue in earlier releases as NX does not get faults on kernel addresses. This patch defines CSB_CC_FAULT_ADDRESS(250) and updates CSB.CC with this proper error code for user space.

2020-04-20Documentation/powerpc: VAS APIHaren Myneni
Power9 introduced Virtual Accelerator Switchboard (VAS) which allows userspace to communicate with Nest Accelerator (NX) directly. But kernel has to establish channel to NX for userspace. This document describes user space API that application can use to establish communication channel.
