KCONFIG_WARN_UNKNOWN_SYMBOLS=1 and KCONFIG_WERROR=1 are descriptive and suitable in scripting, but typing them from the command line can be tedious. Associate them with KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN (and the W= shorthand). Support a new letter 'c' to enable extra checks in Kconfig. You can still manage compiler warnings (W=1) and Kconfig warnings (W=c) independently. Reuse the letter 'e' to turn Kconfig warnings into errors. As usual, you can combine multiple letters in KCONFIG_EXTRA_WARN. $ KCONFIG_WARN_UNKNOWN_SYMBOLS=1 KCONFIG_WERROR=1 make defconfig can be shortened to: $ KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN=ce make defconfig or, even shorter: $ make W=ce defconfig Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.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.
