- =================================================
- The Linux kernel user's and administrator's guide
- =================================================
- 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.
- General guides to kernel administration
- ---------------------------------------
- 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
- devices
- features
- A big part of the kernel's administrative interface is the /proc and sysfs
- virtual filesystems; these documents describe how to interact with tem

- Workload analysis
- -----------------
- This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to
- application developers and system integrators doing analysis of the
- Linux kernel for safety critical applications. Documents supporting
- analysis of kernel interactions with applications, and key kernel
- subsystems expectations will be found here.
