Pull gcc-plugins updates from Kees Cook: "This adds additional type coverage to the existing structleak plugin and adds a large set of selftests to help evaluate stack variable zero-initialization coverage. That can be used to test whatever instrumentation might be performing zero-initialization: either with the structleak plugin or with Clang's coming "-ftrivial-auto-var-init=zero" option. Summary: - Add scalar and array initialization coverage - Refactor Kconfig to make options more clear - Add self-test module for testing automatic initialization" * tag 'gcc-plugins-v5.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: lib: Introduce test_stackinit module gcc-plugins: structleak: Generalize to all variable types
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.
