Linus Torvalds 1c59d38339 linux-kselftest-nolibc-6.6-rc1
This nolibc update for Linux 6.6-rc1 consists of:
 
 Nolibc:
   - improved portability by removing build errors with -ENOSYS
   - added syscall6() on MIPS to support pselect6() and mmap()
   - added setvbuf(), rmdir(), pipe(), pipe2()
   - add support for ppc/ppc64
   - environ is no longer optional
   - fixed frame pointer issues at -O0
   - dropped sys_stat() in favor of sys_statx()
   - centralized _start_c() to remove lots of asm code
   - switched size_t to __SIZE_TYPE__
 
 Selftests:
   - improved status reporting (success/warning/failure counts,
     path to log file)
   - various code cleanups (indent, unused variables, ...)
   - more consistent test numbering
   - enabled compiler warnings
   - dropped unreliable chmod_net test
   - improved reliability (create /dev/zero & /tmp, rely less on /proc)
   - new tests (brk/sbrk/mmap/munmap)
   - improved compatibility with musl
   - new run-nolibc-test target to build and run natively
   - new run-libc-test target to build and run against native libc
   - made the cmdline parser more reliable against boolean arguments
   - dropped dependency on memfd for vfprintf() test
   - nolibc-test is no longer stripped
   - added support for extending ARCH via XARCH
 
 Other:
   - add Thomas as co-maintainer

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.
