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.

There's currently no way to experiment with polled IO with null_blk, which seems like an oversight. This patch adds support for polled IO. We keep a list of issued IOs on submit, and then process that list when mq_ops->poll() is invoked. A new parameter is added, poll_queues. It defaults to 1 like the submit queues, meaning we'll have 1 poll queue available. Fixes-by:Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@acm.org> Fixes-by:
