* | bug-hunting.rst: update info about bug huntingMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-11-071-110/+76
|/ | | | | | | | | | The document shows a really old procedure for bug hunting that nobody uses anymore. Remove such section, and update the remaining documentation to reflect the procedures used currently.

* Merge branch 'doc-tweaks' into docs-nextJonathan Corbet2016-10-276-138/+45
|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The creation of the admin and process guides is a great thing, but, without care, we risk replacing a messy docs directory with a few messy Sphinx books. In an attempt to head that off and show what I'm thinking, here's a set of tweaks that, I think, make the existing Sphinx-formatted docs a bit more accessible.
| * docs: Get rid of the "basic profiling" guideJonathan Corbet2016-10-272-69/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The document has not been touched in over 11 years and doesn't reflect how profiling is done in the perf era. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
| * docs: Get rid of the badRAM guideJonathan Corbet2016-10-272-51/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The last release of this tool was for 2.6.28; it's hard to see how it has any relevance to current kernels. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
| * docs: Clean up and organize the admin guide a bitJonathan Corbet2016-10-274-17/+45
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something better than an unordered blob of files. This is a first step in that direction. The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them. One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use :numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. Eventually we probably want to group the documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC, but it's probably early to do that.

* docs: fix locations of several documents that got movedMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-10-2412-26/+28
| | | | | | | | The previous patch renamed several files that are cross-referenced along the Kernel documentation. Adjust the links to point to the right places. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
* docs-rst: create an user's manual bookMauro Carvalho Chehab2016-10-2426-0/+12755
| | | | | | | | | | Place README, REPORTING-BUGS, SecurityBugs and kernel-parameters on an user's manual book. As we'll be numbering the user's manual, remove the manual numbering from SecurityBugs. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com>
