Patch series "streamline_config.pl: Fix Perl spacing". Talking with John Hawley about how vim and emacs deal with Perl files with respect to tabs and spaces, I found that some of my Perl code in the kernel had inconsistent spacing. The way emacs handles Perl by default is to use 4 spaces per indent, but make all 8 spaces into a single tab. Vim does not do this by default. But if you add the vim variable control: # vim: softtabstop=4 to a perl file, it makes vim behave the same way as emacs. The first patch is to change all 8 spaces into a single tab (mostly from people editing the file with vim). The next patch adds the softtabstop variable to make vim act like emacs by default. This patch (of 2): As Perl code tends to have 4 space indentation, but uses tabs for every 8 spaces, make that consistent in the streamline_config.pl code. Replace all 8 spaces with a single tab.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
