1 | The Linux kernel user's and administrator's guide |
2 | ================================================= | |

4 | The following is a collection of user-oriented documents that have been |
5 | added to the kernel over time. There is, as yet, little overall order or | |
6 | organization here — this material was not written to be a single, coherent | |
7 | document! With luck things will improve quickly over time. | |
8 | ||
9 | This initial section contains overall information, including the README | |
10 | file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters, | |
337c188d | 11 | etc. |

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