arm: docs: Move Arm documentation to Documentation/arch/

2023-06-12T12:33:40+00:00

Architecture-specific documentation is being moved into Documentation/arch/ as a way of cleaning up the top-level documentation directory and making the docs hierarchy more closely match the source hierarchy. Move Documentation/arm into arch/ (along with the Chinese equvalent translations).

efi: libstub: unify initrd loading between architectures

2022-09-27T11:21:36+00:00

Use a EFI configuration table to pass the initrd to the core kernel, instead of per-arch methods. This cleans up the code considerably, and should make it easier for architectures to get rid of their reliance on DT for doing EFI boot in the future. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

efi: efivars: limit availability to X86 builds

2020-09-29T17:40:57+00:00

CONFIG_EFI_VARS controls the code that exposes EFI variables via sysfs entries, which was deprecated before support for non-Intel architectures was added to EFI. So let's limit its availability to Intel architectures for the time being, and hopefully remove it entirely in the not too distant future. While at it, let's remove the module alias so that the module is no longer loaded automatically. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

docs: arm: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-07-15T12:20:24+00:00

Converts ARM the text files to ReST, preparing them to be an architecture book. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
