I saw this type of Kconfig construct on LKML: config SYMBOOL #bool "prompt string" default y and wondered what it does. Then I wondered if '#' comments are even documented. They aren't, so add a little doc for that. Ah, good. kconfig says: arch/x86/Kconfig:2942:warning: config symbol defined without type Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <[email protected]>
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
