- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following a
warning that was added in 6.2.
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to, hopefully,
make it more useful.
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly with
__counted_by annotations.
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the delightful
consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs build. A sustained
effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has addressed almost all of those,
bringing the documentation back into sync with the code. The fixes are
going through the appropriate maintainer trees.
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic links
to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations easy to
access.
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese.
...plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes.

The kernel offers a wide variety of interfaces to support the development
|
|
of device drivers. This document is an only somewhat organized collection
|
|
of some of those interfaces — it will hopefully get better over time! The
|
|
available subsections can be seen below.
