For historical reasons, the primary entry routine living somewhere in the inittext section is called stext(), which is confusing, given that there is also a section marker called _stext which lives at a fixed offset in the image (either 64 or 4096 bytes, depending on whether CONFIG_EFI is enabled) Let's rename stext to primary_entry(), which is a better description and reflects the secondary_entry() routine that already exists for SMP boot.

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.
