We have a handful of new kernel features for 5.11:
* Support for the contiguous memory allocator.
* Support for IRQ Time Accounting
* Support for stack tracing
* Support for strict /dev/mem
* Support for kernel section protection
I'm being a bit conservative on the cutoff for this round due to the
timing, so this is all the new development I'm going to take for this
cycle (even if some of it probably normally would have been OK). There
are, however, some fixes on the list that I will likely be sending along
either later this week or early next week.
There is one issue in here: one of my test configurations
(PREEMPT{,_DEBUG}=y) fails to boot on QEMU 5.0.0 (from April) as of the
.text.init alignment patch. With any luck we'll sort out the issue, but
given how many bugs get fixed all over the place and how unrelated those
features seem my guess is that we're just running into something that's
been lurking for a while and has already been fixed in the newer QEMU
(though I wouldn't be surprised if it's one of these implicit
assumptions we have in the boot flow). If it was hardware I'd be
strongly inclined to look more closely, but given that users can upgrade
their simulators I'm less worried about it.
There are two merge conflicts, both in build files. They're both a bit
clunky: arch/riscv/Kconfig is out of order (I have a script that's
supposed to keep them in order, I'll fix it) and lib/Makefile is out of
order (though GENERIC_LIB here doesn't mean quite what it does above).
