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 quickly-build-trimmed-linux 40 bug-hunting 41 bug-bisect 42 tainted-kernels 43 ramoops 44 dynamic-debug-howto 45 init 46 kdump/index 47 perf/index 48 pstore-blk 49 50This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to 51application developers. Documents covering various aspects of the kernel 52ABI will be found here. 53 54.. toctree:: 55 :maxdepth: 1 56 57 sysfs-rules 58 59This is the beginning of a section with information of interest to 60application developers and system integrators doing analysis of the 61Linux kernel for safety critical applications. Documents supporting 62analysis of kernel interactions with applications, and key kernel 63subsystems expectations will be found here. 64 65.. toctree:: 66 :maxdepth: 1 67 68 workload-tracing 69 70The rest of this manual consists of various unordered guides on how to 71configure specific aspects of kernel behavior to your liking. 72 73.. toctree:: 74 :maxdepth: 1 75 76 acpi/index 77 aoe/index 78 auxdisplay/index 79 bcache 80 binderfs 81 binfmt-misc 82 blockdev/index 83 bootconfig 84 braille-console 85 btmrvl 86 cgroup-v1/index 87 cgroup-v2 88 cifs/index 89 clearing-warn-once 90 cpu-load 91 cputopology 92 dell_rbu 93 device-mapper/index 94 edid 95 efi-stub 96 ext4 97 filesystem-monitoring 98 nfs/index 99 gpio/index 100 highuid 101 hw_random 102 initrd 103 iostats 104 java 105 jfs 106 kernel-per-CPU-kthreads 107 laptops/index 108 lcd-panel-cgram 109 ldm 110 lockup-watchdogs 111 LSM/index 112 md 113 media/index 114 mm/index 115 module-signing 116 mono 117 namespaces/index 118 numastat 119 parport 120 perf-security 121 pm/index 122 pmf 123 pnp 124 rapidio 125 ras 126 rtc 127 serial-console 128 svga 129 syscall-user-dispatch 130 sysrq 131 thermal/index 132 thunderbolt 133 ufs 134 unicode 135 vga-softcursor 136 video-output 137 xfs 138 139.. only:: subproject and html 140 141 Indices 142 ======= 143 144 * :ref:`genindex` 145
