The BPF standardization effort is actively underway with the IETF. As described in the BPF Working Group (WG) charter in [0], there are a number of proposed documents, some informational and some proposed standards, that will be drafted as part of the standardization effort. [0]: https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/bpf/about/ Though the specific documents that will formally be standardized will exist as Internet Drafts (I-D) and WG documents in the BPF WG datatracker page, the source of truth from where those documents will be generated will reside in the kernel documentation tree (originating in the bpf-next tree). Because these documents will be used to generate the I-D and WG documents which will be standardized with the IETF, they are a bit special as far as kernel-tree documentation goes: - They will be dual licensed with LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause - IETF I-D and WG documents (the documents which will actually be standardized) will be auto-generated from these documents. In order to keep things clearly organized in the BPF documentation tree, and to make it abundantly clear where standards-related documentation needs to go, we should move standards-relevant documents into a separate standardization/ subdirectory.

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.
