Linus Torvalds 0432a0a066 Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull vdso timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A series of commits to deal with the regression caused by the generic
  VDSO implementation.

  The usage of clock_gettime64() for 32bit compat fallback syscalls
  caused seccomp filters to kill innocent processes because they only
  allow clock_gettime().

  Handle the compat syscalls with clock_gettime() as before, which is
  not a functional problem for the VDSO as the legacy compat application
  interface is not y2038 safe anyway. It's just extra fallback code
  which needs to be implemented on every architecture.

  It's opt in for now so that it does not break the compile of already
  converted architectures in linux-next. Once these are fixed, the
  #ifdeffery goes away.

  So much for trying to be smart and reuse code..."

README

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.
