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

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.

9This initial section contains overall information, including the README
10file describing the kernel as a whole, documentation on kernel parameters,
11etc.

60This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to
61application developers and system integrators doing analysis of the
62Linux kernel for safety critical applications. Documents supporting
63analysis of kernel interactions with applications, and key kernel
64subsystems expectations will be found here.
