To ensure cross-driver locking compatibility, document the expected guidelines for implementing the GEM locking in i915. Note that this is a description of how things should end up after being reworked, and does not reflect the current state of things. v2: Use rst note:: tag (Rodrigo) Signed-off-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Cc: Matthew Auld <matthew.auld@intel.com> Cc: Abdiel Janulgue <abdiel.janulgue@linux.intel.com> Cc: CQ Tang <cq.tang@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@intel.com> Acked-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20190830105053.17491-1-joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com
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.
