Rearrange some kernel-api chapters and sections to group them together better. - move Bit Operations from Basic C Library Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions (now adjacent to Bitmap Operations since they are not typical C library functions) - move Sorting from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions since sort functions are more Basic than Math Functions - move Text Searching from Math Functions to Basic Kernel Library Functions (keep Sorting and Searching close to each other) - combine CRC and Math functions together into the (newly named) CRC and Math Functions chapter Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <[email protected]> Acked-by: Matthew Wilcox <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <[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.
