When there are filenames of the form ".orig" or ".rej" in the Documenatation/ABI/ subdirectories, there can be confusing or erroneous output generated. Example: the file Documenation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem.orig causes this warning message: Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem:2: WARNING: unknown document: '/powerpc/papr_hcalls' Prevent this by skipping over filenames that may be created by patch/diff tools etc. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: linux-doc@vger.kernel.org Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231228233113.5218-1-rdunlap@infradead.org
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.
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.
