Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
5d27a9c8ea
When porting (Q)SPI controller drivers from the MTD layer to the SPI layer, the naming scheme for the memory devices changes. To be able to keep compatibility with the old drivers naming scheme, a name field is added to struct spi_mem and a hook is added to let controller drivers set a custom name for the memory device. Example for the FSL QSPI driver: Name with the old driver: 21e0000.qspi, or with multiple devices: 21e0000.qspi-0, 21e0000.qspi-1, ... Name with the new driver without spi_mem_get_name: spi4.0 Suggested-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Frieder Schrempf <frieder.schrempf@exceet.de> Reviewed-by: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org> |

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
