      Documentation: remove depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL · 0335cb46
      Kees Cook authored
      
      
      The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
      while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
      Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.

      Documentation: update broken web addresses. · 0ea6e611
      Justin P. Mattock authored
      
      
      Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
      updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
      Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
      the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
      Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
      on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
      to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

      x86, intel_txt: Intel TXT boot support · 31625340
      Joseph Cihula authored
      This patch adds kernel configuration and boot support for Intel Trusted
      Execution Technology (Intel TXT).
      
      Intel's technology for safer computing, Intel Trusted Execution
      Technology (Intel TXT), defines platform-level enhancements that
      provide the building blocks for creating trusted platforms.
      
      Intel TXT was formerly known by the code name LaGrande Technology (LT).
      
      Intel TXT in Brief:
      o  Provides dynamic root of trust for measurement (DRTM)
      o  Data protection in case of improper shutdown
      o  Measurement and verification of launched environment
      
      Intel TXT is part of the vPro(TM) brand and is also available some
      non-vPro systems.  It is currently available on desktop systems based on
      the Q35, X38, Q45, and Q43 Express chipsets (e.g. Dell Optiplex 755, HP
      dc7800, etc.) and mobile systems based on the GM45, PM45, and GS45
      Express chipsets.
      
      For more information, see http://www.intel.com/technology/security/
      
      .
      This site also has a link to the Intel TXT MLE Developers Manual, which
      has been updated for the new released platforms.
      
      A much more complete description of how these patches support TXT, how to
      configure a system for it, etc. is in the Documentation/intel_txt.txt file
      in this patch.
      
      This patch provides the TXT support routines for complete functionality,
      documentation for TXT support and for the changes to the boot_params structure,
      and boot detection of a TXT launch.  Attempts to shutdown (reboot, Sx) the system
      will result in platform resets; subsequent patches will support these shutdown modes
      properly.
