    commit 934193a654c1f4d0643ddbf4b2529b508cae926e upstream.

    Verify that 'depmod' ($DEPMOD) is installed.
    This is a partial revert of commit 620c231c7a7f
    ("kbuild: do not check for ancient modutils tools").

    Also update Documentation/process/changes.rst to refer to
    kmod instead of module-init-tools.

    Fixes kernel bugzilla #198965:

    Drop all references to git daily snapshots of Linux mainline git tree
    since they are no longer generated.

    Drop the "Last update" info since 'git log' is a better source of that
    info and since the Last update date is not being updated.

    Yes, I read that this file is obsolete, but it still has some useful
    information in it.

    Pull Kbuild thin archives updates from Masahiro Yamada:
    "Thin archives migration by Nicholas Piggin.

    THIN_ARCHIVES has been available for a while as an optional feature
    only for PowerPC architecture, but we do not need two different
    intermediate-artifact schemes.

    Using thin archives instead of conventional incremental linking has
    various advantages:

    - save disk space for builds

    - speed-up building a little

    - fix some link issues (for example, allyesconfig on ARM) due to more
    flexibility for the final linking

    - work better with dead code elimination we are planning

    As discussed before, this migration has been done unconditionally so
    that any problems caused by this will show up with "git bisect".

    With testing with 0-day and linux-next, some architectures actually
    showed up problems, but they were trivial and all fixed now"

    * tag 'kbuild-thinar-v4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild:

    IBM Verse is a web UI around Lotus Domino mail servers (much like
    the Lotus Notes client talks to Domino servers).

    For various reasons, it is not at all suitable for kernel development,
    all of which have been raised (repeatedly) internally.

  • 37d69ee30   docs: bump minimal GNU Make version to 3.81 ... Browse Code »

    Since 2014, you can't successfully build kernels with GNU Make version
    3.80. Example errors:

    $ git describe
    v4.11
    $ make --version | head -1
    GNU Make 3.80
    $ make defconfig
    HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
    scripts/Makefile.host:135: *** missing separator. Stop.
    make: *** [defconfig] Error 2
    $ make ARCH=arm64 help
    arch/arm64/Makefile:43: *** unterminated call to function `warning': missing `)'. Stop.
    $ make help >/dev/null
    ./Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:25: Extraneous text after `else' directive
    ./Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:31: *** only one `else' per conditional. Stop.
    make: *** [help] Error 2

    The first breakage was introduced by commit c8589d1e9e01 ("kbuild:
    handle multi-objs dependency appropriately"). Since then (i.e. v3.18),
    GNU Make 3.80 has not been able to compile the kernel, but nobody has
    ever complained aboutt (or noticed) it.

    Even GNU Make 3.81 is more than 10 years old. It would not hurt to
    match the documentation with reality instead of fixing makefiles.

    In Documentation/process/4.Coding.rst there were a couple of paragraphs
    that spilled over the 80 character line length. This was likely caused
    when the document was converted to reStructuredText. Re-flow the
    paragraphs and make the document references proper reStructuredText
    :ref: links.

    This also adds the appropriate reStructuredText file heading to
    kernel-parameters.rst as referenced by the kernel-parameters link in
    this patch.

  • db6ccf23e   docs-rst: automatically convert Graphviz and SVG images ... Browse Code »

    This patch brings scalable figure, image handling and a concept to
    embed *render* markups:

    * DOT (http://www.graphviz.org)
    * SVG

    For image handling use the 'image' replacement::

    .. kernel-image:: svg_image.svg
    :alt: simple SVG image

    For figure handling use the 'figure' replacement::

    .. kernel-figure:: svg_image.svg
    :alt: simple SVG image

    SVG image example

    Embed *render* markups (or languages) like Graphviz's **DOT** is
    provided by the *render* directive.::

    .. kernel-render:: DOT
    :alt: foobar digraph
    :caption: Embedded **DOT** (Graphviz) code.

    digraph foo {
    "bar" -> "baz";
    }

    The *render* directive is a concept to integrate *render* markups and
    languages, yet supported markups:

    * DOT: render embedded Graphviz's **DOT**
    * SVG: render embedded Scalable Vector Graphics (**SVG**)
