The following is a collection of user-oriented documents that have been added to the kernel over time. There is, as yet, little overall order or organization here — this material was not written to be a single, coherent document! With luck things will improve quickly over time.
This initial section contains overall information, including the README file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters, etc.
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 README kernel-parameters devices sysctl/index abi features
This section describes CPU vulnerabilities and their mitigations.
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 hw-vuln/index
Here is a set of documents aimed at users who are trying to track down problems and bugs in particular.
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 reporting-issues reporting-regressions security-bugs bug-hunting bug-bisect tainted-kernels ramoops dynamic-debug-howto init kdump/index perf/index pstore-blk
This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to application developers. Documents covering various aspects of the kernel ABI will be found here.
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 sysfs-rules
The rest of this manual consists of various unordered guides on how to configure specific aspects of kernel behavior to your liking.
