Pull printk fixes from Petr Mladek: - Fix line counting and buffer size calculation. Both regressions caused that a reader buffer might not get filled as much as possible. - Restore non-documented behavior of printk() reader API and make it official. It did not fill the last byte of the provided buffer before 5.10. Two architectures, powerpc and um, used it to add the trailing '\0'. There might theoretically be more callers depending on this behavior in userspace. * tag 'printk-for-5.11-printk-rework-fixup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux: printk: fix buffer overflow potential for print_text() printk: fix kmsg_dump_get_buffer length calulations printk: ringbuffer: fix line counting
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.
