1The Linux kernel user's and administrator's guide 2================================================= 3 4The following is a collection of user-oriented documents that have been 5added to the kernel over time. There is, as yet, little overall order or 6organization here — this material was not written to be a single, coherent 7document! With luck things will improve quickly over time. 8 9This initial section contains overall information, including the README 10file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters, 11etc. 12 13.. toctree:: 14 :maxdepth: 1 15 16 README 17 kernel-parameters 18 devices 19 sysctl/index 20 21 abi 22 features 23 24This section describes CPU vulnerabilities and their mitigations. 25 26.. toctree:: 27 :maxdepth: 1 28 29 hw-vuln/index 30 31Here is a set of documents aimed at users who are trying to track down 32problems and bugs in particular. 33 34.. toctree:: 35 :maxdepth: 1 36 37 reporting-issues 38 reporting-regressions 39 bug-hunting 40 bug-bisect 41 tainted-kernels 42 ramoops 43 dynamic-debug-howto 44 init 45 kdump/index 46 perf/index 47 pstore-blk 48 49This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to 50application developers. Documents covering various aspects of the kernel 51ABI will be found here. 52 53.. toctree:: 54 :maxdepth: 1 55 56 sysfs-rules 57 58This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to 59application developers and system integrators doing analysis of the 60Linux kernel for safety critical applications. Documents supporting 61analysis of kernel interactions with applications, and key kernel 62subsystems expectations will be found here. 63 64.. toctree:: 65 :maxdepth: 1 66 67 workload-tracing 68 69The rest of this manual consists of various unordered guides on how to 70configure specific aspects of kernel behavior to your liking. 71 72.. toctree:: 73 :maxdepth: 1 74 75 acpi/index 76 aoe/index 77 auxdisplay/index 78 bcache 79 binderfs 80 binfmt-misc 81 blockdev/index 82 bootconfig 83 braille-console 84 btmrvl 85 cgroup-v1/index 86 cgroup-v2 87 cifs/index 88 clearing-warn-once 89 cpu-load 90 cputopology 91 dell_rbu 92 device-mapper/index 93 edid 94 efi-stub 95 ext4 96 filesystem-monitoring 97 nfs/index 98 gpio/index 99 highuid 100 hw_random 101 initrd 102 iostats 103 java 104 jfs 105 kernel-per-CPU-kthreads 106 laptops/index 107 lcd-panel-cgram 108 ldm 109 lockup-watchdogs 110 LSM/index 111 md 112 media/index 113 mm/index 114 module-signing 115 mono 116 namespaces/index 117 numastat 118 parport 119 perf-security 120 pm/index 121 pnp 122 rapidio 123 ras 124 rtc 125 serial-console 126 svga 127 syscall-user-dispatch 128 sysrq 129 thermal/index 130 thunderbolt 131 ufs 132 unicode 133 vga-softcursor 134 video-output 135 xfs 136 137.. only:: subproject and html 138 139 Indices 140 ======= 141 142 * :ref:`genindex` 143
