Linus Torvalds 1d3bc6363a A few late-arriving docs updates that have no real reason to wait. There's
a new "Co-Developed-by" tag described by Greg, and a build enhancement from
 Willy to generate docs warnings during a kernel build (but only when
 additional warnings have been requested in general).

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
