docs/core-api: split memory management API to a separate file

2018-08-24T01:48:43Z

This is basically copy-paste of the memory management section from kernel-api.rst with some minor adjustments: * The "User Space Memory Access" is moved to the beginning * The get_user_pages_fast reference is now a part of "User Space Memory Access" * And, of course, headings are adjusted with section being promoted to chapters Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1532626360-16650-6-git-send-email-rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport Reviewed-by: Andrew Morton Cc: Jonathan Corbet Cc: Matthew Wilcox Cc: Michal Hocko Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

docs/core-api: move {str,mem}dup to "String Manipulation"

2018-08-24T01:48:43Z

The string and memory duplication routines fit better to the "String Manipulation" section than to "The SLAB Cache".

documentation: core-api: rearrange a few kernel-api chapters and sections

2018-04-27T23:15:47Z

Rearrange some kernel-api chapters and sections to group them together better. - move Bit Operations from Basic C Library Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions (now adjacent to Bitmap Operations since they are not typical C library functions) - move Sorting from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions since sort functions are more Basic than Math Functions - move Text Searching from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions (keep Sorting and Searching close to each other) - combine CRC and Math functions together into the (newly named) CRC and Math Functions chapter Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Acked-by: Matthew Wilcox Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "A relatively calm cycle for the docs tree again. - The old driver statement has been added to the kernel docs. - We have a couple of new helper scripts. find-unused-docs.sh from Sayli Karnic will point out kerneldoc comments that are not actually used in the documentation. Jani Nikula's documentation-file-ref-check finds references to non-existing files. - A new ftrace document from Steve Rostedt. - Vinod Koul converted the dmaengine docs to RST Beyond that, it's mostly simple fixes. This set reaches outside of Documentation/ a bit more than most. In all cases, the changes are to comment docs, mostly from Randy, in places where there didn't seem to be anybody better to take them" * tag 'docs-4.15' of git://git.lwn.net/linux: (52 commits) documentation: fb: update list of available compiled-in fonts MAINTAINERS: update DMAengine documentation location dmaengine: doc: ReSTize pxa_dma doc dmaengine: doc: ReSTize dmatest doc dmaengine: doc: ReSTize client API doc dmaengine: doc: ReSTize provider doc dmaengine: doc: Add ReST style dmaengine document ftrace/docs: Add documentation on how to use ftrace from within the kernel bug-hunting.rst: Fix an example and a typo in a Sphinx tag scripts: Add a script to find unused documentation samples: Convert timers to use timer_setup() documentation: kernel-api: add more info on bitmap functions Documentation: fix selftests related file refs Documentation: fix ref to power basic-pm-debugging Documentation: fix ref to trace stm content Documentation: fix ref to coccinelle content Documentation: fix ref to workqueue content Documentation: fix ref to sphinx/kerneldoc.py Documentation: fix locking rt-mutex doc refs docs: dev-tools: correct Coccinelle version number ...
