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.

The support for __uint128_t is dependent on the target bit size.
GCC that defaults to the 32-bit can still build the 64-bit kernel
with -m64 flag passed.
However, $(cc-option,-D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) is evaluated against the
default machine bit, which may not match to the kernel it is building.
Theoretically, this could be evaluated separately for 64BIT/32BIT.
config CC_HAS_INT128
bool
default !$(cc-option,$(m64-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0) if 64BIT
default !$(cc-option,$(m32-flag) -D__SIZEOF_INT128__=0)
I simplified it more because the 32-bit compiler is unlikely to support
__uint128_t.
Fixes: c12d3362 ("int128: move __uint128_t compiler test to Kconfig")
