Both /dev/vcs and /dev/vcs0 were in use in the past, but these days /dev/vcs0 is mostly historical curiosity. * "/dev/vcs" is the name that has always been in the Linux allocated devices list. * "vcs" is the device name in sysfs since Linux v2.6.12. * MAKEDEV(1) in Debian used to create /dev/vcs0 only, but /dev/vcs was added in 1999: https://bugs.debian.org/45698 * MAKEDEV(1) in RedHat switched from /dev/vcs0 to /dev/vcs in 2000: * Fri Oct 20 2000 Nalin Dahyabhai <nalin@redhat.com> - change vcs0 to vcs (ditto for vcsa0) Signed-off-by: Jakub Wilk <jwilk@jwilk.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
