Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

Linus Torvalds cee37d83e6 Merge branch 'work.read_write' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull read/write fix from Al Viro:
 "file_start_write()/file_end_write() got mixed into vfs_iter_write() by
  accident; that's a deadlock for all existing callers - they already do
  that, some - quite a bit outside.

  Easily fixed, fortunately"

* 'work.read_write' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
  move file_{start,end}_write() out of do_iter_write()

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
