Paolo Bonzini 1c482452d5 KVM: s390: Features and Enhancements for 5.7 part1
1. Allow to disable gisa
 2. protected virtual machines
   Protected VMs (PVM) are KVM VMs, where KVM can't access the VM's
   state like guest memory and guest registers anymore. Instead the
   PVMs are mostly managed by a new entity called Ultravisor (UV),
   which provides an API, so KVM and the PV can request management
   actions.
 
   PVMs are encrypted at rest and protected from hypervisor access
   while running.  They switch from a normal operation into protected
   mode, so we can still use the standard boot process to load a
   encrypted blob and then move it into protected mode.
 
   Rebooting is only possible by passing through the unprotected/normal
   mode and switching to protected again.
 
   One mm related patch will go via Andrews mm tree ( mm/gup/writeback:
   add callbacks for inaccessible pages)

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.
