.. The Linux Kernel documentation master file, created by sphinx-quickstart on Fri Feb 12 13:51:46 2016. You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least contain the root `toctree` directive. Welcome to The Linux Kernel's documentation =========================================== This is the top level of the kernel's documentation tree. Kernel documentation, like the kernel itself, is very much a work in progress; that is especially true as we work to integrate our many scattered documents into a coherent whole. Please note that improvements to the documentation are welcome; join the linux-doc list at vger.kernel.org if you want to help out. User-oriented documentation --------------------------- The following manuals are written for *users* of the kernel — those who are trying to get it to work optimally on a given system. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 admin-guide/index Introduction to kernel development ---------------------------------- These manuals contain overall information about how to develop the kernel. The kernel community is quite large, with thousands of developers contributing over the course of a year. As with any large community, knowing how things are done will make the process of getting your changes merged much easier. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 process/index dev-tools/index doc-guide/index Kernel API documentation ------------------------ These books get into the details of how specific kernel subsystems work from the point of view of a kernel developer. Much of the information here is taken directly from the kernel source, with supplemental material added as needed (or at least as we managed to add it — probably *not* all that is needed). .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 driver-api/index core-api/index media/index gpu/index security/index sound/index crypto/index Korean translations ------------------- .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 translations/ko_KR/index Indices and tables ================== * :ref:`genindex` |
