Hi all,
Today's linux-next merge of the v9fs tree got a conflict in:
Documentation/filesystems/9p.rst
between commit:
07d241fd66ba ("docs: filesystems: convert 9p.txt to ReST")
from Linus' tree and commit:
c6f141412d24 ("9p: document short read behaviour with O_NONBLOCK")
from the v9fs tree.
I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.
